Support a Single Mom's Journey to Army Graduation

Help a Proud Mom Travel from Ohio to See Her Son Graduate from Army Boot Camp & AIT!

Hi everyone,

I’m reaching out with a mother’s heart full of love, pride, and hope. My son, my hero, has been away at Army Boot Camp, training hard, pushing through challenges, and growing into the strong young man he was meant to be. After months of sacrifice and dedication, his graduation at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, on March 14th, 2025, is finally here—a moment he has worked so hard for.

As a single mom, I’ve done everything I can to support him from afar, but financially, making the trip from Ohio to Fort Sill, Oklahoma to see him walk across that stage is just out of reach. He has asked me to be there, and the thought of missing this milestone in his life breaks my heart.

But his journey doesn’t end there. Following boot camp, he will continue his training in Advanced Individual Training (AIT) in Texas for 17 more weeks. He will graduate again, and I want nothing more than to be there for both of these life-changing moments. Unfortunately, covering the costs of traveling from Ohio to both Fort Sill, Oklahoma, and then to Texas for his AIT graduation is beyond what I can manage alone.

I’m humbly asking for help to cover travel, lodging, and basic expenses so I can be there for my son—both in Oklahoma and Texas—to cheer him on, hug him, and remind him that no matter where life takes him, his mom will always be in his corner.

Every little bit helps, whether it’s a donation or simply sharing this with others who might be willing to support. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for helping make this dream come true.

With gratitude,

Jessica
