New Apartment Essentials for Melinda who can not wait to make her place her own

Posted Dec 30, 2019
Melinda will be moving into her own apartment soon as she will be aging out of services. She currently attends college and has an internship at a nonprofit organization. She has been saving money for when she ages but does need assistance purchasing some additional items. Melinda would love to purchase bathroom accessories, bedding and kitchen ware to help her get settled into her apartment. This wish would really mean a lot to Melinda as it would allow her to budget and be able to pay her rent without having to worry about the essentials she needs.

Melinda is 25 years old and lives in NJ

Despite her involvement in foster care and limited family support, Melinda recently graduated from Fairleigh Dickinson University with a degree in business administration. She is continues to be very involved in her church groups. Melinda is extremely focused and motivated, and has demonstrated true leadership and is in an inspiration for other youth in foster care.
