Frances graduated from high school this year. In her last year, she travelled to Nigeria and had an opportunity to visit a school in a very remote region known as Naka. After her visit, she decided to establish a foundation known as "The Oaklands Foundation" with the sole purpose of assisting schools in the third world by providing funds to better the learning environment for these children. The Foundation has been established and she has already raised approximately $30,000.00. Her goal is to keep the foundation growing to help as many people as possible.
