Overview
I am a 42-year-old man. I am trying to build a foundation so I can get employment. I have various certifications through previous work in social services that I hope to use in future employment.
My goals are to complete my GED(I'm 3/4 of the way there!), obtain my driver's license and volunteer so that one day I can obtain permanent employment. I hope to work in the social service field some day.
I need to take a driver's preparation course in order to get my driver's license for the first time.
Meeting this need will help me because it will help me obtain employment which often requires a driver's license as well as make me the safest driver I can be.
Need funded!
Thank you for helping Jeremy fund this need.

I have worked with Jeremy for almost 2 years in our case management and Open Doors Project groups programs. He is extremely reliable and always ready to support others. Jeremy has a passion for sharing his gifts to help other people and I believe getting his driver's license will help him in obtaining employment in the social service field.
