Help Myra and Jenise Keep the Siblings Together!
Jenise and Myra are a resource family in Los Angeles, CA. Myra is a veteran elementary school teacher in a high-needs school. Jenise tutors children from home, which allows her to care for the family, and has also worked for community-based nonprofits. They have twin foster babies (16 months old) whom they adore. The twins recently got a younger sister, and Jenise and Myra would really love to take them and keep the family together - but they need a car that can fit three car seats. When the twins came, they bought a good used car that could accommodate a double stroller and the other gear that comes with twin babies, but a third child means that even that car is outgrown. They are trying to raise enough money for a down payment on a decent used minivan to keep their growing family safe and comfortable.
