Strength Based Community Change (SBCC)

Jasmine is a determined young adult in extended foster care. She’s studying at Cal State San Bernardino, where she lives in the dorms and is majoring in Arabic Studies. While she finishes her general education courses, she’s discovering her interests and laying the groundwork for her future. Right now, Jasmine isn’t working, but she’s focused on her personal growth. She’s working on getting her driver’s license, which will give her more freedom to enjoy her hobbies like going to the beach, drawing, attending hockey games, and taking guitar and dance classes. For now, she gets around with Uber and rides from family. Jasmine has plans to move back in with her grandmother while continuing her studies. Her journey shows her strength and dedication to creating a meaningful and independent life.

Jasmine really needs the right clothing for her upcoming interviews. First impressions are crucial, and looking polished can help her appear serious and prepared. She is requesting an Old Navy gift card so that she can shop for a few interview outfits, which will boost her confidence and allow her to focus on showcasing her skills instead of worrying about what to wear. Plus, investing in professional attire will set her up for success in her career. Dressing well will show that she respects the opportunity and values the role, ultimately giving her the confidence she needs in these important moments. This request has been split into two wishes to allow for a great shopping trip! This is wish 2 of 2.
