Recipient story
Alone at Just 18, Fighting for a Future
GIVIT
She arrived from Congo on a Women at Risk visa, seeking safety and the chance to rebuild. But at just 18 years old, her parents moved interstate and left her completely on her own. Now separated from her family and living in a homeless shelter with four other women, she faces each day with anxiety, stress, and the heavy burden of isolation.
She has past experience in hospitality and customer service and has been actively searching for work in retail or hospitality for the past five months without success.
Financially, life is extremely difficult. She is struggling to cover even the basics while trying to save for a car.
At just 18, she is facing homelessness, isolation, and immense hardship, but she hasn’t given up. She is determined to study, work, and rebuild a life of stability.
Your support can help her survive this lonely chapter, giving her the essentials she needs to take her first steps toward education, employment, and a safe future.
