“I have always had the desire to make a difference in people’s lives, I just never had the resources to do it. With my non-profit organisation I can finally make this dream a reality.”
Tammi James set up the TammiJames Foundation, which is an exciting and innovative initiative to help disadvantaged women.

What’s your favourite quote?
