Puffer Jacket with Faux-Fur Trim for Jazyiah who loves playing doctor!

Posted Nov 17, 2017
Jazyiah has requested a jacket for herself in order to stay warm throughout the winter weather. The recent loss of her grandmother's home has left her grandmother unable to afford winter coats for Jazyiah and her bother, as she has had to use money set aside for the holidays to put a down payment on a new home. In order to stay warm at the bus stop, or while playing with friends during recess, Jazyiah will wear extra layer of clothes or borrow her friend’s sweatshirts. However, she continues to report being cold and on some days she will not participate in recess because she is so cold. Jazyiah would be very appreciative and excited to know that she can now play in the front yard during winter weather without the concern of being too cold or her grandmother’s concern that she may become sick from not being dressed appropriately for the winter weather.

Jaziyah is 12 years old and lives in NJ

Jazyiah is a sweet young girl who is full of energy, loves to help others, and is very intelligent. Jazyiah and her younger brother who is autistic have been raised by their grandmother since birth. Her father has been incarcerated most of her life, and her mother was murdered in the summer of 2017. Before she passed, Jazyiah's mother struggled with drug addiction which limited her interaction with Jazyiah. Despite Jazyiah’s hardships, she is a resilient and optimistic child who has dreams of one day becoming a doctor in order to help other young children like herself.
