About River's personality

Our daughter is a delightful blend of strong-willed independence, sweet affection, and infectious silliness. She approaches the world with determination and a loving heart, always ready to share a giggle or a hug, making every day an adventure.

What are River's favorite activities?

She loves chasing and "hugging" our cat Loki, and tries to share her snacks with everyone, including other toddlers and babies! Dance parties with Grandpa are a highlight. Outdoors, she's a tiny explorer, running, jumping, climbing, and collecting "treasures" like rocks and pinecones. Cars and balls are her go-to toys.

How would $25,000 impact your family?

This prize would be life-changing. After my husband's unexpected job loss just before River was born, finances have been a constant challenge. With a new baby on the way, $25K would bring immense financial peace, helping with essentials like diapers and food, and allowing us to create cherished family memories without added stress.
