Headphones for Loe to help make their commute to work comfortable

Posted Jan 6, 2025
Loe has experienced a remarkable year, filled with both challenges and achievements. Throughout the year, she moved three times, dealt with a dangerous roommate, and lived in a house plagued by mold. Despite these hardships, Loe secured a full-time job that offers her the highest salary she has ever earned, and she’s even looking to return to school. However, managing her finances remains a struggle, as she continues to live paycheck to paycheck while budgeting wisely. As they navigate a daily commute of roughly one and a half hours round trip on the metro and bus in Los Angeles, Loe dreams of a pair of nice headphones to enhance the travel experience. These headphones would not only provide a much-needed escape during her commutes but also help make the most of their busy days.

Loe is 23 years old and lives in CA

Loe is one of those students whose resilience and grit shine through in everything they do. Loe graduated from high school with a full-ride scholarship to college while simultaneously aging out of the system with no adult, guardian, or mentor support to lean on. They studied Film and Media Arts but were forced to put their education on hold when they turned 21 and their extended foster care benefits ended. They have spent the past three years working to get their body and their mind out of survival mode in order to sustain themselves and their mental, emotional, and physical strength. They are now at a place where they are ready to explore their full potential and begin to start truly living, not just surviving.
