A gift card for Asia a former foster youth who is paying her way through college and needs help to buy groceries

Posted Apr 13, 2017
Aisa is currently a junior in college. She is no longer a recipient of AB12-- a state based aid program that helps foster youth pay for their living expenses while in college. She works anywhere from 15-25 hours a week to pay her bills, all while managing a full-time school course load, participating in campus organizations and serving in leadership roles. Aisa really is a model student. Receiving a gift card to help her purchase food would help her tremendously , it would help her ease some of her financial burden.

Aisa is 28 years old and lives in CA

Aisa is a third year sociology major attending University. She plans to go to graduate school after she completes her bachelor studies and enroll in a masters of social work program. Eventually Aisa wants to be a clinical social worker where she will continue to make an impact on her community.
