An Instacart Gift Card to survive the long weekend
Posted May 27, 2022
Uyi unfortunately is running low on SNAP benefits, which are never enough to survive this inflation on grocery prices. To prepare for the long weekend, Uyi would like to go grocery shopping but has no income to do so. Please help Uyi buy some food for the weekend!
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.
