Dear Friends and Supporters, Stanley Sanders was a great friend, a true leader, a strong man and a phenomenal spirit. He passed away on February 7 , 2009. Stan and his beloved dear wife Pamela A.K.A. Brandy Sanders are the founders of the Kierrah Foundation. Kierrah Foundation empowers, educates, and encourages young women who were former foster children . I personally had the honor of doing the first article on them and their amazing story. In the short time I have known these " Angels" for a short time. However, they have done so much for so many people. We are in true need of resources for a proper burial for Stan. If you have any suggestions or would like to contribute, please do not hesitate to contact me. Your prayers and support are definitely appreciated.
