I'm 26 years old living in Atlanta Georgia. I'm trying so hard to do better moving up gradually. I went from being a housekeeper at $8.75 an hour to a Certified Nurse Assistant with 2 jobs. One where I make $11.00 an hour an another I'm at $13.50. I'm still struggling though because of taxes and the cost of living. Now I'm about to become a city bus driver starting at just a little more, $15.40 an hour. I just got my cdl permit and being trained for my cdl. I'm not going to settle and stay where I'm at. I'm about to get as many trades up under my belt as possible

My name is Stef...I am an American who grew up in Detroit, MI and lived in poverty my entire childhood. From not having a place to stay, to living on the streets, to living in a shelter(C.O.T.S). During High School I worked 3 jobs, (Home Depot, Panera Bread, and a co called Sundries) I was very tired and tried to excel very hard in school. It was very difficult, especially looking at what everyone else had, that I didn't. And I don't mean the expensive name brand clothing. I mean a house (or my own room, with a bed to lay my head on) and a car, and having some savings for college. After I got out of HS I went to a community college, that I could afford graduated in business and now I work as a supervisor of a hospital. I am very grateful for what I have, but I will tell you to anyone who takes the time to read this, have fellow feeling for your neighbor and listen to the stories of others. You wont believe what's behind a smile.Cheers, Stef
