New Clothes for Uyi who is desperate for clothes that fit comfortably

Posted Aug 28, 2020
Uyi was recently linked to our agency after living in Binghamton with no support system. He does not have secure housing and dropped out of school due to his housing instability and life challenges. Uyi is not working due to both Covid complications as well as having lost his ID. He hopes to gain employment soon, and is really struggling. Uyi has asked for help in getting some clothing, as he had to move with very limited items. Please consider helping Uyi with some desperately needed clothing.

Uyi is 25 years old and lives in NY

Uyi left foster care around 2014/15, being discharged to family via a kinship placement. Unfortunately, this did not go well and by 2017 Uyi was residing in a homeless shelter. He remained there for about a year before moving to Binghamton to attend college. Uyi is not currently still in school due to his lack of a strong support system, but was linked to our agency in the hopes of locating housing back in NYC where our nonprofit, and others, can better assist him on his path to success.
