As a former NCHS student, who was close friends with many of the ABC scholars, I understand the importance of giving to this amazing program. The boys who enter into the ABC house are the most genuine, motivated and committed people
I have come across. It has been an honor to be friends with many of the ABC students and now to have the opportunity to give back makes me happy that I can be a part of such a great community.
