More Success Stories Wilder Oswaldo “My name is Wilder Oswaldo, a young immigrant. I came to this country knowing nothing and without any horizon, eager to learn. To overcome, to get ahead, only that there was a problem with the language until the day I arrived, I met an excellent English teacher, my current one, Tracey Montgomery, apart from being an excellent teacher, she is a super beautiful human being with the desire to teach and improve the destiny of her students. With these words, I express how I feel today and say we achieved it, my classmates together with our teacher, God bless always.” Because of his enrollment in his English class, Wilder’s vision difficulties became very apparent. Wilder worked with his family, his teacher, and his doctors to gain access to magnified vision glasses and other special equipment. With this technology, he now has increased his capacity to gain knowledge and learn even faster for a more positive and improved outcome is life and learning. My Success Story

Jane's Kids The Bethany Legacy Foundation (BLF) established the Jane’s Kids Endowment in 2023. Jane Jacobs had great compassion in her heart for children, so when she learned there were many children in the community whose families could not afford summer activities, she did something about it. That lead to the creation of the Jane’s Kids Summer Scholarship Fund, which marked its 10th anniversary in 2024. Jane’s Kids, a program at the Clearinghouse of Jefferson County, provides financial assistance to families for children’s summer activities. Bethany Legacy Foundation established this endowment to provide perpetual funding for the program, as delivering safe, fun, and engaging activities for local youth aligns with Bethany Legacy Foundation’s mission of making Jefferson County the “healthiest place in the world.” Annual grants from this Designated Endowment will be sent to River Valley Resources to support the Jane’s Kids program so they can continue to provide access to summer programs for our youngest residents.
