Launched on August 1st, the program commenced with the presentation of $1,000 grant to James Foundoulis, a recent graduate from Laguna Hills High School. According to Arna Freedman, eHomes’ CEO, “James is an exceptionally dedicated and talented student and we would love to see him achieve his goals.
