A Welding Helmet for Charlotte to be safe during her competition

Posted Jan 7, 2025
Charlotte is eager to participate in an upcoming competition that could secure her funding for welding school. In order to compete effectively, she needs several essential safety items. With unwavering confidence in her skills, she believes she has a strong chance of finishing in the top three or even claiming victory. Her track record speaks for itself; she has previously triumphed in three local welding competitions, showcasing her talent and dedication to the craft. However, without these vital safety items, she will be unable to enter the contest, jeopardizing her dreams of advancing her education and career in welding.

Charlotte is 18 years old and lives in MO

Charlotte has spent most of her life in foster care. She graduated high school a semester early and is now focused on furthering her education. Two of Charlotte's passions are running in cross-country meets and welding, which she uses as outlets to manage her anxiety and cope with past traumas. Charlotte is determined to achieve her future dreams. At the age of 14, she realized that her aspiration to create art pieces from metal would eventually become her career. She has many talents and is passionate about art, particularly in metalworking. Charlotte often gifts her creations to various places in her town, and her artwork is displayed at local venues, including the courthouse and city hall.
