Chapter 11: The Elena Vance Foundation**
With the funds recovered from Arthur Vance's illicit accounts, Julian established the *Elena Vance Foundation*, dedicated to providing medical care and housing assistance to single mothers in coastal communities.
He didn't hire a PR team to promote it. Instead, he worked alongside Mrs. Gable and local hospice nurses to ensure every dollar went directly to families in need.

"It’s what should have been done ten years ago," Julian said honestly. "Thank you for the push, Clara."
