Success Story

Eleisha

Eleisha came to MicroGrants through HIRED. She is a single mother whose son is on the autism spectrum, and she used her grant to pay a past-due balance in order to return to school to study social work. She says,

“It’s hard to work because of all of [my son’s] therapies. Returning to school will help me get a degree in social work and I can work as a case manager and go out to people’s homes. It’s a little more flexible . . . I just want to thank the donors because this is helping me get back on track and in the right direction for me and my kids, so thank you.”
