My name is Rebecca and this is my daughter, 6 year old Alexa.  Our story starts over a year and a half ago.  I was previously a chef and realized I was unhappy in my current position because I never got to see my daughter.  I decided to go back to school when I was 30.  Through out going back to school I have encountered problems I never thought I would.  I lost my job, we lost our house, my dad encountered serious health problems flat lining twice.  My computer was stolen which held all school projects and work.  I live in Burlington and travel to Scarborough for school 3 times a week.  This whole time juggling and stressing about getting myself to school, my daughter to school, figuring out how she is getting picked up and who could watch her.   However through all these serious issues I have managed to maintain a high GPA of 3.9 and am on track to possibly finish with high honors.  I qualified for scholarships for which two I am the recipient of from my essays and grades submitted. 

I am finished school in 4 weeks and have a very promising career a head of me, I have lots of professors working close by my side to get me in the right company.  There is no doubt of my success as I work incredibly hard and persevere regardless what comes at me. 

We are currently living with my mother who has decided it is our time to leave, I have 12 days after finishing school to be out.   We need to secure a place where my daughter and I can live happily. 

I have no fears for being able to continuously pay our bills once I begin working as I always have before.   We just need help in between.

We are looking for $6000 to pay for first and last on a new house, set up hydro and utilities and to actually move. To help to continue to make car and insurance payments and gas to travel to complete my education.   

As this is a time sensitive issue we are looking for generous donations to help achieve our goal.
