A New Kitchen Table for Pam who is moving into her dream apartment
Posted Apr 28, 2020
Pam is so excited to sign her lease on her dream apartment and even more excited that she moves in super soon. As Pam prepares to pack her entire life up and move across town, she has realized the furniture she has is from when she aged out of Foster Care. This furniture has moved from apartment to apartment with her and holds many memories but they were never really hers, she didn't get to pick them out, they were hand me downs from someone else. While her kitchen table has fulfilled her needs, she is hoping to start fresh and leave behind some negative feelings. Pam can not wait to start fresh and have friends over for dinner and to play board games on her amazing new kitchen table!
Pamela is 42 years old and lives in NY
Pam's journey began in the Ivory Coast where she was born. Her father brought her to the States at the tender age of two. His dream was to provide better opportunities and for them and to live the "American Dream." At age six that dream was shattered when she started to experience both emotional and physical abuse in the household . The abuse was so bad she attempted suicide at age thirteen. At age sixteen the abuse in the household reached a climax. She felt her life was endangered so she left home and placed herself into the New York foster care system. Pam says, "Foster care literally saved my life. And I will always be grateful."
