Tamera, 28 years old, CO | NEEDED BY 07/03

Wish submitted by:

Tamera entered foster care at the age of 4 and remained in the system until she was 18. Through those years, she learned resilience, adaptability, and how to keep moving forward even when life felt uncertain. Today, she is a devoted mother to a handsome young son who is her greatest motivation and source of joy. She is a hardworking, optimistic, and determined young woman who is focused on building a stable and independent future for herself and her child. One of her biggest goals is to move into her own apartment, where she can create a safe and secure home for her family. She is also committed to continuing her education in pursuit of a career in dental hygiene. She has already completed most of her prerequisite courses and is eager to continue college so she can earn her degree and establish financial independence. She hopes to build a career that allows her to provide stability, security, and opportunity for her son while setting a strong example of perseverance and success. She is a loving mother, a dedicated student, and someone who continues to push forward with optimism and strength despite the challenges she has faced.

Tamera is asking for assistance with this bill because it is a critical, time-sensitive expense that is at risk of falling behind during a job transition. Helping with this car payment would directly prevent loss of reliable transportation, which is essential for maintaining employment and getting to her new job. It also ensures she can continue providing consistent care and transportation for her son. By covering this gap during a period of reduced or changing income, the support helps stabilize her situation, prevents further financial strain, and supports her ability to stay on track toward long-term independence.
