2007 Saver of the Year: Aniya Green
 |
Aniya Green
Founder of Foster Youth Nonprofit Organization |
Aniya spent her whole life in foster care, living in one group home after another. She set her sights on starting a small business – inspired by her own experience. She used her EARN savings to start You First Community Services, a non-profit foster housing organization. Aniya believes a bright future is ahead for the youths in her home... and for herself and her newborn son Jaydinn. “EARN taught me so much. I am more mature, more business-minded. I’m not your average 20-year-old.”
