"Yes, This is About Me - But It's Really About Them"

Writer's picture: Cristy RossCristy Ross

Please join us in congratulating Crystal on her HiSET!🫶


Crystal's journey is the definition of victory against all odds. Having dropped out of high school due to a demotivating social circle, she moved away from her family in Virginia to start her own family in Louisiana, and after a rough period, she was left to raise her three children alone.


She was driven to achieve something greater, so she set out to achieve her HiSET. She's the first one in her family to achieve her high school diploma, and she values breaking generational curses and leaving a life for her children far greater than she could've ever imagined for herself.


When talking about her HiSET completion, she said "yes, this about me - but it's really about them!" as she gestured to her kids. She plans to become a local real estate agent and continue being the best mom she can be.


Our adult education instructor, Janet, topped off the celebration with goodie bags full of candy and toys for her children!🎉


Crystal, you have a heart of gold, and we're so proud of your selflessness and hard work! Keep breaking barriers and reach out if you ever need anything.


To our community: you are the reason we're able to transform lives like Crystal. YOUR DONATIONS CHANGE LIVES🫶
