A bed side crib for Glenda who is expecting her first baby

Posted Oct 9, 2024
Glenda is currently eight months pregnant and is facing financial difficulties in preparing for her baby girl. Although she has a supportive resource family, they are not financially capable of assisting her with the more expensive baby essentials. Glenda is particularly interested in acquiring a bedside crib to keep her baby close to her. This would allow her to monitor her baby while she does her schoolwork or spends time reading in bed, as she often does.

Glenda is 17 years old and lives in NJ

Glenda immigrated to the US with family members who unfortunately did not take good care of her. Glenda has been in foster care since 2017. She loves her foster family and sees them as her real family. She struggles with self-confidence, but hopefully, in time, she will learn to value herself and move forward positively from this part of her life.

Awesome Human grants the wish for Glenda! Thanks Awesome Human.

"Hi there! Congratulations on your baby girl- I'm also pregnant with a baby girl and it can be very stressful, exciting, and terrifying. We've found most of our baby's clothes and basic needs on Facebook Marketplace, so maybe that would be helpful for you too! People sell practically brand new baby items all the time on there. Also if your city has a Buy Nothing group on Facebook, people are donating items for free every day there as well. I'm sending you all my love and comfort to you!!"
