L is a teenager who struggled with bad choices early in 2024 and found herself in custody after being on the run. She has since turned her behavior around and is now working at a grocery store, finishing online school, and doing her best to make safe and sound choices. Her placement home (a single mother of 4), who is also her godmother, is helping her get a vehicle. Even with a job, it is a large burden to pay for a vehicle when starting from nothing. This request is for the tags and taxes to register a vehicle, but any other monetary donation to even get a down payment on the vehicle is also welcome. Any consideration in regards to this request is appreciated. Thank you.
