Crafted Transformation Foundation was founded by CEO, Marlowe Boyd, a survivor of homelessness and domestic violence. Inspired by navigating systemic inequities and personal trauma, Marlowe created this organization to overcome entrepreneurial challenges faced by underserved populations through community-focused programs, building bridges particularly for returning citizens and survivors of abuse.
