HOLIDAY WISH

A Laptop for Stephanie who wants to go back to school.

Posted Dec 23, 2020
Stephanie stopped attending classes once she aged out and faced a period of homelessness. However, in late 2019 she secured her first apartment and continued to work to support herself. She is now ready to ring in 2021 by returning to school, but with all classes online she needs a laptop to do so. Please consider helping Stephanie who works so hard!

Stephanie is 29 years old and lives in NY

Stephanie is a former foster youth who recently received a Section 8 apartment after years of unstable housing. Through all her adversity, she has stayed strong. Stephanie is always employed, and excelled in work; the restaurant chain she works for even paid for Stephanie to travel when they opened new stores, so she could train the new staff at these locations. Stephanie has goals to attend college and further her career in a corporate setting. She has overcome so much and is joy to be around!

"Thank you so much Katie and Peter, both for your gift but also your extremely thoughtful message. Stephanie does not have a lot of people cheering her on, so kind words showing her that other people believe in her and what she has overcome means a lot. Stephanie was so excited to go pick up her laptop, and is ready to begin classes again! She had this as a resolution for 2021 but did not expect to have a laptop at the start of the year. Thanks to you, she does, and she can continue to be reach for all of her goals. Wishing you both a wonderful 2021!"
