Overview
I am a currently raising my four children, and have been caring for my late sister's 3 children as well after she passed away. I am currently struggling to buy them school clothes for the year.
My goals are to become a nurse, once the children go back to school I can go back to school part-time to complete my education. It is also my goal to adopt my sister's children.
I need school uniforms and coats so that my children can be comfortable and confident enough to excel in school.
On a budget as tight as ours, and with my sisters' children to also take care of, it's almost impossible for me to set aside any extra money for things like school clothes. Meeting this need would mean the world to me.
Need funded!
Thank you for helping Tia fund this need.
