Let's Help JaDa Get On the Road to a Brighter Future!
Donation protected
As many of you know, I’ve had the incredible honor of mentoring a remarkable young woman I’ll lovingly refer to as JaDa to protect her privacy. At just 19 years old, JaDa has faced challenges that would bring most people to their knees and yet, she continues to rise with grace, strength, and determination.
JaDa recently became a first-time mom… to TWINS! From the moment we met, I knew she was someone special. We clicked instantly, and as I got to know her, I saw a young woman with a fierce desire to choose life for her babies, break generational cycles of trauma, and build a better future for her little family.
Despite an early delivery and all the demands of new motherhood, JaDa pushed forward and met every requirement to graduate with her high school class. Just last month, she walked the stage receiving her diploma and the Rising Phoenix Award, a recognition of her resilience, grit, and growth. She truly embodies the spirit of that award!
Now, with graduation behind her and two healthy babies in daycare, JaDa is working hard at a new job and planning for her future. However, getting to work and daycare by bicycle, rain or shine, with twins, is a huge challenge. She never complains, she simply keeps pushing forward but, I wanted to help her take the next step.
That’s why I’m starting this GoFundMe to raise funds to help JaDa purchase a safe, reliable car, pay for insurance for a year, and cover a little gas to get her started.
She didn’t ask for this. When I approached her with the idea, she simply said, “YES… I’m so grateful for you.” That’s just who she is. Always full of appreciation, never taking a thing for granted.
My hope is that we can come together to give JaDa a hand up, not just as a young, single mom, but as a role model for her babies and a young woman who is determined to change her story.
If you feel moved to give, no matter the amount, I promise it will be appreciated more than you know. You won’t just be giving her a ride, you’ll be giving her momentum, independence, and a path to continued success.
Thank you for reading, for caring, and for believing in JaDa’s journey. Let’s get this girl on the road!
With love and gratitude,
