Meet Laura

“I really like the structure that the Village of Hope offers,” says Laura. “It has helped me so much. I also appreciate that there is always someone around; I’m not alone anymore.” With the support of the Village of Hope staff, Laura got a job as a waitress at a local cafe. She also got her driver’s license back and bought a car. Weekly visits from her young son keep her focused and motivated.

“I’ve been through a lot of programs, and Penn Foundation is by far the best one,” says Laura. “The staff really cares about me, and that makes all the difference.”
