Household Necessities for Mercedes who works really hard

Mercedes, 33 years old, CA

Wish submitted by:

UC Riverside - Guardian Scholars Program

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.

Mercedes needs help with purchasing your everyday household items. Mercedes works really hard as a mother of two and a full time student. As the school year is coming to an end so is her financial aid. The summer break is always a difficult time for many vulnerable college students, particularly those who are formerly in foster care like Mercedes. Mercedes would be very grateful to receive this wish.
