HOLIDAY WISH
A laptop for Yakira who understands the value of hard work!
Posted Nov 21, 2017
Yakira is an 18 year old female in foster care and she will be attending college in the Fall of 2018. Yakira is excited to be able to pursue her career goals and she has the potential for a very bright future. Yakira has expressed that she cannot afford to purchase a laptop on her own. She has stated this is one of the most important thing she could ask for this Christmas so she can have it as she transitions into college. This would be one less thing she would have to worry about.
Yakira is 25 years old and lives in NC
Yakira is an 18 year old female in foster care who is a senior in high school and will be attending college in the Fall of 2018. Yakira is one who makes all A's and occasionally a B. She has the potential for a very bright future. Yakira has faced many challenges in her lifetime and continues to face adversities. However, she has not allowed her life's experiences to define who she is and who she is becoming. Yakira does a lot of things independently (as much as she can) but, like many of our children, she needs some extra help from time to time.

Yakira indicated that "she is planning to go to college in the fall and this amazing gift will greatly diminish the costs associated with such lofty goals. It's impossible to express how grateful I'am in words, but I would like you to know that I'll be forever grateful for this act of genuine kindness. Much Thanks, Yakira, P.S.
