Marla is currently living in a hotel with her mom, older sister, niece, and nephew. They recently lost their home in Plainfield due to the building becoming abandoned and in need of repairs. The landlords left the building, leaving all the tenants without a place to live. Marla's mom is unable to afford Christmas gifts this year due to her limited income, as she is paying a high fee for renting a hotel room with a high weekly rate. Marla would like a Target gift card to purchase gifts for her family for Christmas. This gift card would provide Marla with the opportunity to choose unique items for each family member, making their Christmas special despite the challenging circumstances they are facing.
