Posted Jul 11, 2018
Mercedes is a hard working, young mother who is entering a four year university to complete her Bachelor's Degree. She and her two young children are moving into a new apartment closer to campus. Mercedes had to leave some things behind in her previous home that she would love to be able to replace. Making this new apartment a cozy home for her and her children is a top priority in Mercedes' life. She wants to make sure they are all happy and comfortable.

Mercedes is 32 years old and lives in CA

Mercedes is an emancipated foster youth with a passion for giving back to her community. She successfully completed her studies at a two year college first before transferring to her current four-year university. She is a great role model for her two children her son who is 7 and her daughter who is 5. Mercedes doesn’t plan to stop her studies with her bachelor’s degree; she plans to enroll in a master’s program at UCLA.
