The Turn-A-Frown-Around Foundation, Inc. (TAFA) is dedicated to the assistance of those who have lost hope--especially those who suffer from psychiatric and physical disorders, lovelessness, isolation, and abuse. The Foundation is meant to be a "missionary" effort of joy, compassion, and unconditional love by giving an abundance of attention to those who are hurting in nursing homes, psychiatric hospitals, group residences, children's homes, or individual shut-ins.
