Myra's Angels
Myra’s Angels Foundation (MAF) was established February 2017 in Raleigh, North Carolina. MAF’s main focus is to make a difference in the lives of homeless and foster children. We believe that these angels need to feel safe, secure and valued. Each day numerous homeless and foster children are left without support, transitioning with a trash bag of scant items or nothing at all. MAF can have an impact on these children by providing them with an angel care pack, containing new basic essential and comfort items, to support and enable a smooth transition. Part of our goal is to minimize the tremendous psychological and emotional stress by providing them something they can call their own.
Mission & Vision
Our mission is to improve the lives of children, creating an easier transition and alleviating the stress of homelessness. To change the lives of foster and homeless youth through life enhancing strategies.
What We Do
MAF provides bags filled with basic essential items (toiletries, clothing, blankets and comfort items.) We believe that we can improve the lives of these Angels when their immediate basic needs are met. Together we can support, empower and uplift the lives of homeless and foster children, supporting the dreams and hopes of every child.
Our vision is to create a nation where the basics needs of homeless and foster children are met.
