ANGIE LAUNCHES CORA!

After 10 years as Granny’s House Program Coordinator, hugging hundreds of kids, passing out what must have seemed like millions of backpacks (and probably as many cups of juice), and graduating dozens of Princess Academy girls, Angie Azzanni is stepping into a whole new realm of ministry outside of public housing as she launches a new venture, “Cora.” Through Cora, Angie and co-founder, Travis Craig, will help connect at-risk kids with sports teams and coaches, jobs, tutors, academic counselors etc.

Angie describes Cora this way: “The root word ‘Cor’ means heart and also courage; a vital wellspring of life that makes things function and provides supply to the rest of the body for productive, redemptive lifestyles.” 

Tireless, faithful, hard-working, super-organized, devoted are just a few of the words that describe Angie’s life and approach to ministry. When we first learned of her plans to leave Granny's House to launch Cora, it was difficult to imagine Granny’s House without her. I am certain that one day, many will find it difficult to imagine life without Cora! 

We hope you enjoy this photographic stroll down memory lane!
