A sofa for Maribel to create new memories with her family

Posted Feb 8, 2024
Maribel dreams of a couch that will provide comfort and become a central hub for her family's movie nights and cherished moments. Her current couch is showing its age with visible tears and poked-through springs, so it's understandable that Maribel yearns for a new one. A brand-new couch will look great and symbolize a commitment to creating a warm and inviting space where family bonds are strengthened and laughter is shared. Maribel will be so happy to see this new sofa in her living room, providing a comfy place to relax!

Maribel is 31 years old and lives in CA

Maribel is attending college with a major in Social Work. She is a wonderful mother of three girls. Her hope is to eventually graduate college with her master's degree in Social Work. She hopes that graduating from school and growing as a person can give her daughters inspiration and motivation in life, showing them that anything is possible, even when things get tough. Maribel dreams of one day providing a stable home for her daughters and the ability to provide for their needs and wants. Maribel aspires to graduate college and work with children and families in the community. She hopes to become a Social Worker and work with foster children and families. She wants to be the voice and advocate for many children in the system and families who can’t. She aspires to make a change and touch the lives of many children in need of support.
