Jenda Foster Care

Jershawn is a determined and resilient young man who continues to show remarkable strength and independence. He has worked hard to build the skills he needs for adulthood, pushing forward, even when the foster care system presented him with obstacles. Jershawn is currently pursuing his GED and preparing to take the exciting next step of living on his own. His positive spirit, motivation, and unwavering drive truly inspire everyone who has the privilege of knowing him.

Jershawn has been working really hard over the past few months to get his GED and earn certifications for a better future. He’s been tackling the challenges of living on his own and learning important life skills with the help of his independent living specialist, focusing on staying organized and prepared. He walks everywhere and rarely asks for anything for himself. A new backpack would make a big difference for him, giving him a reliable way to carry his things and keep them safe and organized. This simple gift would help him with everyday challenges and show him that his efforts and growth are noticed and supported.
