Elizabeth, 39 years old, OH

Wish submitted by:

Elizabeth is a devoted mother who is courageously rebuilding her life after making the difficult decision to leave a long-term controlling and unhealthy relationship. Having spent part of her own childhood in foster care, she understands firsthand the importance of creating a safe, stable, and nurturing environment for her children. With the support of her mother, Elizabeth has begun seeking mental health services for both herself and her children as they adjust to significant life changes. Leaving their home and familiar surroundings has been emotionally challenging for the family, but Elizabeth remains committed to healing, building healthy relationships, and providing her children with the stability they deserve. Elizabeth's resilience, determination, and willingness to seek help demonstrate her commitment to breaking unhealthy cycles and creating a brighter future for her family. Through ongoing support and mental health services, she continues working toward emotional wellness, family stability, and long-term independence.

Elizabeth is getting ready to return to work after the summer, and her transportation costs are quickly adding up. Some assistance with these expenses would greatly help her commute to work and ensure her children get to where they need to be during the busy back-to-school season. Support for gas expenses would ease this financial burden, allowing her to focus on both her family and her students.
