Overview

I am a single mother with one 7 year old beautiful son. I aspire to go back into my field of Massage Therapy so I can become housed and continue to take of my son.

My goals are to pay for my liability insurance for Massage Therapy because without it I can not work in the state of Illinois. I would like to continue to build experience in spa and clinical massage.

I need $250 to pay for one year of massage therapy association membership, which includes full coverage insurance, connections on job leads and continuing education courses.

Meeting this need will help me because without this insurance, I cannot apply or work as professional licensed massage therapist. Also greater earning potential increases my ability to be self-sufficient.

Validated by Anna from North Side Housing and Supportive Services (What does this mean?)

I have known FeFe though my work at various agencies for almost 3 years. I having been working with her at NSHSS Day Support center for 4 months. She worked hard to finish massage therapy school while facing homelessness. She had a setback last year and lost her housing but has not let that stop her from the goal of being a productive citizen and a full time mother. Her journey will be easier when she can become employed full time.
