A gift card for Cynthia’s college textbooks and supplies

Posted Nov 24, 2020
Cynthia is one year away from transferring to a 4-year University and has been a 3.0 GPA student her entire freshman year in college! She has done amazingly well and is so proud of what she has accomplished. Winter semester is coming up and she is in need of text books and school supplies to help her be successful in school. This gift would allow her to focus on her studies and continue excelling as the great student she is!

Cynthia is 24 years old and lives in CA

Cynthia is an incredible young woman currently participating in a transitional housing program for foster youth, along with her four siblings. Despite moving around three times during her time in foster care, she maintained high grades throughout high school. Cynthia has also been actively involved in community outreach programs, including beautification projects, blood drives, and assembling care packages for the homeless and the elderly. Cynthia aims to become a business administrator. While studying, she works part-time and is focused on budgeting wisely to save money to support herself and her younger siblings. Although she has not had a stable home until joining the housing program, she consistently remains positive, expressing gratitude for the homes she has lived in, the families who have shown her kindness and love, and the opportunity to study and work in the United States.
