Overview
I am a 20-years-old. I've been trying to get a job. I've never had a opportunity until now to successfully complete a program that prepared me for employment.
My goals are to find employment, preferably in customer service, and save money to get permanent housing.
I need a haircut, interview clothes and a pair of shoes. There are jobs hiring now but I would need to have my own dress shirt, tie, suit, and dress shoes.
Meeting this need will help me because getting this uniform is the only thing standing between me and a job. I have all the experience necessary and if I go to an interview and look the part the employer will see that I'm the ideal candidate. Once I'm employed, I'll be able to secure housing for myself.
Need funded!
