Profile: Nancy is a single mom of three struggling to provide her children with a better life than she’s had. Asking for household goods—specifically beds—to make their lives more comfortable, Nancy’s children could all benefit from a computer too.

Everyday is about survival for her and her children. Explaining their needs, she shared her fears and frustrations regarding Humboldt Park’s gang problem, schools and cost of raising a family on her own. Her dream is to see all her children finish school and have a chance at a happy, healthy future. She wants everyone to know how much she appreciates any and all donations to help her family.
