I'm Tahrita M.
I grew up in a time where I had to find my own means of supplies or in hopes my older siblings who had a small paying job could assist me along the way. I’ve been homeless throughout my childhood and adolescent years and this is what sparked me to create an impact and invoke change. No child or youth deserves to go to school and not have what they need in terms of supplies and resources.
