FAMILY BACKGROUND:
44-year-old single mother striving to give her two children hope after a difficult year marked by financial strain and transportation loss. Her car broke down over the summer, leaving the family without reliable transportation and preventing her children from enjoying the activities they deserved. With limited income and ongoing challenges, she worries constantly about how their circumstances affect them, even though both children excel in school and are known for helping others. She hopes for support this Christmas to show them that good things can still happen to good people, and to remind them that their worth and potential are never defined by temporary hardships.
