Boston Entrepreneur Launches 'Project F' To Offer Foster Kids Family Through Fitness

TL;DR

Setaro, who owns North End Fitness in Boston, grew up in the foster care system and wants to provide the next generation of foster children a place to build a community and find a passion.He calls it calls Project F."As a kid, I didn't have a sense of direction, and I didn't think anyone cared whether I made it in life or wound up in jail," he wrote in a GoFundMe campaign."Under my supervision, foster kids will set up the studio, get the word out about it, and administer it each day," he wrote.He gave a breakdown of the costs: $42,000 will cover rent for a space in Boston for a year, $35,000 will pay for the equipment such as weights and machinery, and $8,000 will go to administrative costs like setting up a 501(c)3.Life for adults who grew up in the foster care system is often a bleak one."
