Katy's Fundraiser for Sharing & Caring

Hey friends and family!

During my junior year of high school, I became a single mom, facing challenges I never imagined. But thanks to the support of my school, I was given the opportunity to take CNA classes—an opportunity that changed everything. That CNA certification allowed me to work, to earn a living, and to support my child while finishing my senior year of high school.

This is why I urge you to consider donating during NWA Gives. Your contribution could be the lifeline that a mother like me needs, giving her the chance to rewrite her story. Sharing & Caring is not just a job; it’s a beacon of hope. It’s about offering the same chance to families and individuals who, like me all those years ago, need someone to believe in them. You have the power to change a life.

Even a small donation can go a long way:

$25: (Student Champion): opens doors for two students through FFA membership

$150: (Workforce Builder): equipe a student with industry-recognized construction certifications

$500: (Healthcare Pathmaker): transforms a student into a Certified Nursing Assistant

If you’re able, I’d love for you to join me in making an impact. Whether it’s $5 or $50, every dollar helps families in our community.
