A bag for Lola who has big plans for medical school someday

Posted Aug 3, 2023
Lola will be starting the new school year a bit differently.. with a newborn baby. Her expenses are plenty as a new mom, so she is asking for help purchasing a new bookbag to start off high school feeling prepared. Her goal has always been to graduate and go to medical school.

Lola is 17 years old and lives in NJ

Lola entered foster care when she was just 5 years old because of an unhealthy living environment. She has grown so much and recently became a mom to a baby boy. Lola is loving, caring, and quite mature for her young age. She is in high school and is determined to graduate even though she’ll be a young mom. Lola has aspirations of going to college and becoming a doctor. She especially wants to provide a healthy and bright future for her child.
