Cyion is a bright and resilient young woman who has just entered a new chapter in her life after aging out of the foster care system. She is focused on building a future rooted in stability, purpose, and personal growth. Whether she is studying for exams or setting up her new home, Cyion approaches each day with hope and determination. Family means everything to her, and she especially cherishes the time spent with her sister. Their bond has been a grounding force through life's ups and downs, and together they share laughter, memories, and dreams for the future. Cyion’s journey is just beginning, and she is already proving that with community, courage, and commitment, anything is possible.

Cyion has just taken a huge step toward independence—she recently moved into her very first apartment after aging out of the foster care system. With courage and determination, she’s building a new life on her own while juggling the demands of being a full-time student. But like many young people starting out with limited resources, Cyion is facing an unexpected challenge: she doesn’t have the funds to cover her utility bill this month. With this support, Cyion’s new home stays warm, lit, and filled with the comfort she deserves.
