Eve Valdez's Story

Help Me Run for Change Support My 5K for CYC As a former foster youth who fell through the cracks and became homeless at just 13, I know what it’s like to feel forgotten. Today, I’m rebuilding my life with purpose and I’ve committed to running a 5K in support of California Youth Connection (CYC), an organization that empowers foster youth to lead, advocate, and create a better future. I’m running for the kids who are still in the system. For those who don’t feel seen. For those slipping through cracks that should never have existed. Your donation, no matter the amount goes directly toward leadership development, advocacy training, and support for foster youth who are finding their voice and changing the system from within. Help me reach my $5,000 goal and show these young people they’re not alone.
