Stepping into Success: Lee Lee's Wish for Work Shoes

Posted May 26, 2024
A new pair of sneakers for Lee Lee's new job at Smash Burgers. Lee Lee is a hard worker and smart young lady who turned her hurt and pain into motivation, propelling her towards working extra hard to achieve her goals. She secured a job in her neighborhood and is thrilled about it. However, the job mandates black sneakers with rubber soles, which she found on Amazon.com. Regrettably, she lacks the funds to purchase them. Granting this wish will propel Lee Lee towards success.

Lee Lee is 19 years old and lives in NJ

Lee Lee is a courageous and resilient young woman who bravely escaped her abuser, who was once her guardian. Despite being one of ten siblings, all scattered apart, she found herself shouldering the responsibility of raising herself. Through hardship, she honed her skills in cooking and hairstyling, harboring a deep curiosity for learning. Lee Lee dreams of enrolling in the Job Corps while still pursuing side work, all while maintaining a positive outlook despite her challenging circumstances. In her moments of solace, she finds joy in watching YouTube videos, immersing herself in music, and cherishing time spent with her friends. Her ultimate aspiration is to secure a role that allows her to uplift and empower her community, a testament to her compassionate spirit and unwavering determination.
