Silver Lining Mentoring

Olive grew up in the foster care system and spent time living in a group home. She is an incredible young adult who is dedicated to developing her life skills. Olive is focused on working and saving money. Over the past several years, she has gained valuable experience in the food service industry and has learned a great deal from her jobs. She aspires to return to school and is committed to being a lifelong learner. Olive has a passion for fashion, hair, and nails, which she uses as a means of self-expression. She enjoys spending time with her siblings, friends, and mentor. One of her favorite activities is going out to eat and trying new foods in the area.

After facing numerous challenges while growing up in the foster care system, Olive has put in immense effort to create a stable and fulfilling life for herself. Recently, however, she encountered another setback when she had to move from her apartment due to unsafe mold, leading to the loss of much of her furniture. As she settles into her new space, Olive is striving to rebuild her home and make it feel welcoming. A couch would greatly help her achieve this goal, providing her with a comfortable place to relax and a crucial element to transform her new house into a true home.
