HOLIDAY WISH

A trip to Target for 19 y/o Nyasia who wants to buy gifts for her family

Posted Nov 3, 2016
Nyasia would like a Target gift card to help her with holiday shopping for her family. She works part time, but feels that holiday shopping may put a strain on her tight budget that she works hard to maintain. Having a gift card to help ease that worry will help Nyasia having a fun, relaxing holiday season!

Nyasia is 27 years old and lives in NJ

Nyasia has been in foster care for 8 years. She has incredible determination, and has overcome a lot during her time in care, including a learning disability, being separated from her sister, and having to work long hours at multiple jobs to make ends meet. She is now in college and living independently. She is majoring in sociology with the goal of becoming a social worker. What better person To do the job than someone who has lived it! Nyasia recently got a raise after working at Target for 2 years which she is super excited about!
