Don't Stop Dreaming

“When I ended my freshman year in college, I found myself pregnant and without support from my daughter’s father. I was filled with disappointment because I saw all my dreams disappearing and my life as I knew it changing. I found myself surrounded by my peers who did not know or understand what I was going through or unavailable and unwilling to support me. After reaching out to One by One for support, I was matched with a mentor who helped me prepare physically, emotionally, and spiritually to become a mother. My mentor provided me with a friendship that encouraged my growth as a Christian and as a mother. It gave me the confidence to know that I was capable of anything and that being a single parent would not stop me from achieving my goals. Today, I am a candidate for a Master’s of Business Administration, and my daughter is a happy and healthy two year old. With the guidance and support of One by One, I was able to reset my goals to better our future.”
