Meet Our Heroes
The Heroes of the Albee Aryel Foundation are the kind, generous people who donated to support our Fellows and who told us they believe in the Albee Aryel Foundation’s ability to make a difference in our community.
Reno Mayor Hillary Schieve headlined our first fundraiser in August 2022, and threw her support to our Fellows. She personally donated $1,000.00 and encouraged others to donate to the foundation. We are grateful for her confidence in the Foundation and our Fellows.
