Hope in a Suitcase

Monique is a very smart and talented girl who currently lives in a foster home with her sister. Although foster care has been challenging for Monique, she finds comfort in knowing she is not alone. She enjoys going to school, and her favorite subjects are math and art. Monique aspires to be a photographer.

Monique needs a new school bag because her current one is worn out and no longer holds her supplies properly. The straps are tearing, the zippers are broken, and carrying it causes her discomfort. As she prepares for the new school year, having a reliable and sturdy backpack will help her stay organized, protect her books and materials, and allow her to focus on learning instead of worrying about her bag falling apart. A new school bag would give Monique the confidence and tools she needs to succeed.
