Francis is a young mother who has been in foster care since she was 11 years old. Despite facing many adversities, Francis remains determined to become independent.

Francis is a resilient young woman who grew up in foster care and has faced numerous challenges throughout her life. Despite facing personal issues that led her to drop out of school, she demonstrated remarkable determination and worked hard to overcome these obstacles. With great dedication, Francis returned to her studies and excelled, achieving high honors. This June, she is proudly set to receive her high school diploma. However, due to her limited income, she cannot afford a prom dress, which she dreams of having for this special occasion. Receiving support to help her attend the prom would mean the world to her—a moment she never imagined she would have the chance to experience.
