Maggie is a strong and remarkable young person. Since losing her mother at age 8, she has faced many challenges, including moving through several foster homes and not always having stable support. Even with these difficulties, she has stayed focused on her schoolwork and continues to do well in her classes. She is resilient, determined, and works hard toward her goals. Maggie enjoys women’s basketball and likes spending time outdoors. She also dreams of becoming a software engineer so she can build a stable and successful future. People describe her as strong, thoughtful, and driven, with a lot of potential for the future.

Maggie is excited to be graduating from 8th grade and starting high school, an important milestone in her life. She would like some help as she prepares for this next chapter. This support would allow her to get school supplies and other essentials that help her feel confident, prepared, and ready for high school. These items would also reflect her personality and support her success. After overcoming many challenges, this would be a meaningful way to celebrate her achievement and help her begin high school with confidence and dignity.
