A Letterman Jacket for Ellie who wants to show off her accomplishments

Posted Feb 2, 2022
Ellie is over the moon right now! she lettered in academics this year and can not be prouder of herself for all that she has accomplished, she worked so hard to become accepted into an amazing program at her high school and it has paid off. She is so thankful for her supportive family and friends who pushed her and encouraged her when she thought she couldn't do it. She would be so grateful to receive a letterman's jacket with her name on it so she can wear it and be able to show off what she has done and have a constant reminder of what hard work can do.

Elli is 16 years old and lives in CO

Elli entered the foster care system after enduring years of abuse and neglect by her biological family. She is finally thankful to feel at peace and safe where she is in her foster home. She has overcome so much in her life and has excelled in school all through the trauma she faced. Elli has worked hard to be accepted into a prestigious high school program where she will be able to earn her associates degree as she completes high school. It is a very rigorous program that gets high school students started on their college career and they can transfer their credits to many universities worldwide. She hopes to one day be a gaming designer and influence kids that are just like her and help others stay connected.
