Overview
I am 21 years old. I was born and raised on the south side of Chicago with my mother and 4 siblings. I grew up poor and we struggled a lot.
My goals are to get the knowledge and financial support to better my life. I am working towards a welding certification, which will hopefully lead to a successful career.
I need $700 to fix the damage to my car. I had a car accident so I need help with my car repair cost. I need my vehicle to get me back and forth to school and soon to work.
Meeting this need will help me because I will be able to go to school to finish my welding certification. Then I will have a vehicle when I get a job.
Need funded!
Thank you for helping Tanji fund this need.
