(Upper Tumon, Guam, Monday, March 4th, 2024) - On Friday, March 1st, Triple J Ford, on behalf of Ford Motor Company Fund, presented a $10,000 check to Sanctuary Inc. to support their GumaManhoben program. The initiative focuses on providing essential tools for successful independent living for at-risk young adults aged 18-22, aiming to break the cycle of homelessness.

"Triple J Ford is proud to support Sanctuary Guam's vital efforts in empowering our youth," stated Jay Jones, Senior VP of Triple J Enterprises. "This donation marks a milestone as we celebrate Triple J's 40th anniversary, continuing our legacy of putting customers first and giving back to the communities we serve."

Sanctuary's GumaManhoben program provides a comprehensive pathway for young adults facing homelessness. This includes 24-hour managed transitional housing, educational support, job readiness training, life skills development, and access to necessary health services. Upon successful completion, participants are assisted in securing subsidized independent living arrangements funded through federal grants.
"We are grateful for Triple J Ford's generous contribution," said Aja Ramos, Chief Operating Officer of WestCare Pacific Islands, the managing organization for Sanctuary, Inc. "Their support directly impacts the lives of our youth, offering hope and tangible opportunities for a brighter future."
