The road from here to home…
…is paved one step at a time
Diana is currently at Cal State Northridge, working toward a degree in communications. But she is also a single mother who, because of financial hardships, had fallen behind on rent and was in danger of losing both her home and her chance to finish her education. Diana’s dream is to go on to a Master’s program after graduation, but all that was in danger if she was evicted. Thanks to our Door of Hope supporters, we were able to provide rental assistance, emotional support, and even extra groceries for her and her young daughter during the Thanksgiving holiday. We helped in her negotiations with her landlord, met with her monthly for planning and goal-setting, and most importantly, we believed in her . “My daughter is so young,” said Diana. “She doesn’t really know what’s going on and I’m trying to protect her. The donors and the community are really helping people like me who are trying hard to get their education and find a sustainable career. Thank you so much!”
