A Flight for Ashley to Attend her Biological Mom's Funeral

Posted Jan 8, 2021
Ashley's biological mother recently suffered a tragic accident. She was hit by a car and passed away. Ashley wishes for a flight so she can attend the funeral in Atlanta on the 15th. Ashley needs this closure and doesn't want to miss this important event. She's had a string of bad luck and recently had to use all of her savings so she is unable to afford the flight on her own. She would be so grateful for this support that will improve her wellbeing. This flight means so much to her.

Ashley is 27 years old and lives in NJ

Ashley was placed in Foster care at 2 months old. She lived in multiple Foster homes and group homes. She emancipated at age 18, was homeless for a year, then re-entered Foster care. She has been on her own since age 21. Ashley is determined to be independent. She's using this time during the pandemic to her best benefit. She is in a program called Bridges to Employment where she is studying for her High School Equivalency. Her goal is to support herself completely. Whatever anyone gives to Ashley, she gives back and then some.
