Apartment Essentials for Kiasia who loves the comfort her home brings her
Posted Jul 2, 2024
Kiasia envisions transforming her apartment into a cozy and functional space by purchasing new kitchen and bathroom supplies. Having never really had her own space while in the foster care system, this will be a new start for her. She believes each item will add a touch of personality to her everyday routines. Investing in quality cleaning supplies will keep her living space sparkling and instill a sense of pride in maintaining a welcoming and motivating environment for herself.
Kiasia is 21 years old and lives in OR
Kiasia is an incredibly resilient young woman who entered foster care at the age of 14. She had dropped out of 8th grade to care for her twin infant siblings after their mother abandoned them due to a substance use disorder. Despite these challenges, Kiasia went on to graduate from high school and earned a Beat the Odds Scholarship. Currently, she is studying Public Relations and Nonprofit Management and is passionate about helping her community and advocating for the needs of foster youth and the BIPOC community. Kiasia is a caring sister, niece, peer mentor, and friend to many. She has been working since the age of 16 and recently achieved a 4.0 GPA in her most recent college term. She also loves writing and aspires to publish her own memoir someday.

"Dear Kiasia, We tried for years to adopt from foster care and every time it fell through, so we want to share our love by helping empower young women in any way we can even if we are not parents. As a woman who loves to cook and garden and create a beautiful home space, I truly hope you enjoy these gifts as you build your own nest. I also applaud you for your strength and hope you know how amazing YOU are! If there is anything we can help with, please let us know. With love, Aimee & Dan Levens"
