Nicole is truly exceptional. She recently ended her support with the Division of Child Protection and Permanency after a lengthy history of out-of-home placements with limited support. Nicole is hardworking and dedicated, as shown by her ability to juggle both work and college. She attends classes while also working at her local grocery store. Additionally, Nicole is independent and resourceful, demonstrating her capability to handle challenges and solve problems. Her love for her sisters reflects her caring and nurturing nature, underscoring her strong family values and loyalty.

Nicole has been dreaming of owning an electronic keyboard this holiday season. As a devoted pianist for the past couple of years, she has poured her heart into her practice and developed a deep passion for music. Unfortunately, she currently lacks a keyboard to practice on at home, which limits her ability to grow as an artist. With plans to move into her own apartment in the new year, receiving this keyboard would not just be a gift; it would be a transformative opportunity for her. It would allow her to refine her skills, unleash her creativity, and fill her new space with the beautiful sounds of her music. This keyboard is more than just an instrument; it represents her journey as a budding musician and her desire to make her mark in the world through the power of music.
