I am thrilled that we are beginning this long- term partnership with Foster Nation and my hope is that we will make an important impact on the lives and futures of the inspiring youth in their program that are aging out the system. Together, we will give them a chance to defy impossible.”The skincare brand is pledging $100,000 to Foster Nation annually, which includes their 'Defy Impossible' scholarship program awarding five recipients per year the opportunity to attend esthetics school to pursue careers as licensed aestheticians.
