How would $25,000 impact your family?A $25,000 award would be life-changing for our family. As a single, working mom and caregiver to my widowed mother, this support would ease financial stress, help cover Dayton’s early education, and allow us to build savings for the future. It would bring much-needed stability to our multigenerational household and create new opportunities for growth and security.
