My motto "Focus on bettering yourself rather than what everyone else is doing. People are always changing so be the example you want to see."

Pancho Pacheco

Board of Director

Growing up in the dynamic heart of NYC, I embraced my faith in Jesus Christ from a young age, nurturing a meaningful personal relationship with Him. My passion for community issues led me to dedicate over thirty years to teaching in NYC Public Schools, where I had the privilege of impacting many lives before my retirement. As I look back on my journey, the principles of faith and service remain significant to me.
