"I've known and been friends with Don, Molly and the rest of their beautiful family for close to 30 years now. Don and Molly are exceptional human beings with a huge heart and on a life mission for the kids in the APCF homes. I was able to, at a very early stage, witness the beginnings of APCF first-hand. This is a pure and loving endeavour. What I also like about the APCF culture is that those involved, including all of the board members, are helping without compensation. The adminitrative overhead is minimal. This organisation is all about the kids. Nothing else."
