Hello! My name is Allana and I am the "Big" in Big Brother Big Sister to my "Little", Avalon. Avalon is now 19 years old and has been beating the odds since I was matched with her when she was 7.

Avalon works full-time at a law office & is a server at Perkins as well. While working this much and trying to get ahead in life after spending much of her life in foster care, she is currently facing a dental emergency.

She needs at least 2 wisdom teeth pulled & she's been told this will probably total about $10,000 as it's causing a lot of other problems (not to mention horrible tooth pain).

Her last guardian did not fill out the proper paperwork for her to have dental or medical assistance until she was 21, which adoptees should get.

I'm posting this in hopes we can raise some donations to help offset the cost and show her life doesn't have to be so mean.

If there are extra funds after the work is done, they will be donated to Big Brother Big Sister of Southern MN.

Any help is so much appreciated! Thank you!

Allana
