A scooter for Kaleah to Gain Freedom and Independence

Posted Dec 11, 2024
Kaleah has been dreaming of owning an electric scooter for years as a hardworking college student striving to overcome the challenges of her past and build a brighter future. With a busy schedule juggling classes, freelance work, and maintaining stability, reliable transportation has become a major hurdle in her day-to-day life. An electric scooter would provide Kaleah with a dependable, cost-effective way to get to class, work, and essential errands without the stress of navigating unreliable public transportation. It would save her valuable time and energy, allowing her to focus more on her studies and personal growth. For Kaleah, this scooter wouldn't just be a mode of transportation but a step toward greater independence and stability.

Kaleah is 24 years old and lives in CA

Kaleah is a student at San Diego City College, driven by her goals of becoming a cosmetologist or social worker. Having grown up in the foster care system, Kaleah experienced over 25 placements and overcame immense challenges, including dropping out of high school. However, her resilience led her back to school in 2019, where she earned her high school diploma in 2022, graduating with a scholarship. Now, Kaleah has transitioned out of homelessness and lives in student housing while pursuing their college education. She works freelance to make ends meet and remains focused on maintaining stability in her housing, academics, and personal relationships. Despite life's difficulties, Kaleah's faith and determination keep her moving forward, embracing the belief that her past does not define her future. She is committed to building a brighter, more stable life and achieving her goals with strength and optimism.
