Kitchen Aid mixer for Parker who is getting ready to move out on her own

Posted Oct 25, 2024
Parker is on the brink of a significant transition, residing in a group home after the loss of her caregiver. As she prepares to graduate and embrace independent living, she is determined to carve out a new chapter filled with hope and opportunity. Baking has always been her sanctuary, a cherished activity that serves as both a joyful escape and a vital coping mechanism during tough times. As she takes her first steps towards independence, Parker faces the challenge of balancing necessary purchases with her limited budget. A mixer might seem like a luxury, but for Parker, it represents so much more—it’s a tool for maintaining her mental wellness and a way to share her love of baking with others. With each batch of cookies and cakes, she envisions not only the sweet aromas filling her new home but also the chance to sell her homemade treats. This could open doors for her to connect with others, foster friendships, and build a community as she embarks on her nursing school journey. Granting Parker the gift of a mixer would do more than enhance her baking experience; it would empower her to thrive, share her talent, and leave a lasting impact on those around her.

Parker is 17 years old and lives in OH

Parker is currently living in a group home as she prepares for independent living after her graduation this year. She has worked diligently to maintain good grades and has plans to pursue nursing school once she graduates. Parker's determination and hard work are paving the way for her future success.
