Katherine, 21 years old

Wish submitted by:

Kat is a funny and honest young lady. She is pushed by her struggles to create a successful and sustainable life for herself and her baby on the way. While Kat is working to establish her housing, She is setting herself up to get into school and pursue her dreams of someday opening her tattoo shop. Kat has used tattoos as a form of self-care and self-expression and aims to share her love of this body art with others through her tattoo shop. Kat is creative, artistic, and goal-oriented.

Kat is searching for ways to pay her cell phone bill this month. She typically would get it paid through another service. However, her benefits from this service were cut off when she gained employment, and she continues to work with the resource provider to try and reestablish her benefit. Kat works with educational, housing, social work, and medical providers to establish herself in college, find housing, and make appointments to track her pregnancy. She uses her phone to make appointments, follow up on tasks, meet with providers, and ensure she gets all steps done she needs to. Kat also often travels alone as a young woman, and having her phone attached to the service helps keep her safe. This wish will help her deal with this sudden loss of services and keep in touch with everyone on her team.
