As a single mother, nursing student, and full-time employee, making ends meet has been a challenge. Thanks to the Student Emergency Fund, I was able to pay my overdue rent and focus on my studies with peace of mind. Your generosity lifted a tremendous weight off my shoulders and made a lasting impact on not only my life, but my child’s.
I am truly grateful and look forward to paying it forward one day.
