A pan set for Alejandra who is learning to cook on her own

Posted Oct 22, 2024
Alejandra has recently graduated from high school and is now embarking on her college journey. As she transitions into this new chapter, she will be moving into an Independent Living Program (ILP) apartment. In addition to managing her studies, she will also be caring for her young son, which will require her to plan and prepare nutritious meals for him regularly. To help her in the kitchen, Alejandra is looking to build up her collection of essential cooking tools, starting with pots and pans that will enable her to experiment with various recipes. Cooking has always been a passion for her, and she hopes to create a diverse recipe list that includes family favorites and new dishes alike.

Alejandra is 19 years old and lives in GA

Alejandra is a shy and very loving young mom. She is smart and loves going to school. She is attentive of her newborn son and loves spending time watching him develop. Alejandra recently entered foster care and a second chance group home and she is adjusting well so far. Alejandra loves to share her culture and to cook Mexican food.

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

"Hi, Alejandra! I really hope you enjoy your pots and pans! I became a mom at a young age as well (I was 19) and I had to learn how to cook on my own and it is now one of my favorite things to do! I definitely made some mistakes in the beginning, as we all do, so when/ if you do- don't be discouraged. I wish you the very best in your new (college) journey, and in motherhood. There are so many challenges that come with that but just remember to love them and be present. Happy holidays! -Liz"
