Thank you to our donors from CCRC client,
Gbaper Grupee
“I will always be grateful to you for supporting CCRC so that Isaiah and I—and other families like ours—can get the help we need to turn our lives around.”
Six years ago, Gbaper
Grupee was a single teen parent with a special needs child. She
was alone and scared. Then she came to CCRC and her life changed…
dramatically for the better.
Before finding CCRC, Gbaper says she had no idea how she was
going to care for her son or herself. “I was clueless about
raising a child on my own, particularly one with special needs.
All I knew was that I loved my son and wanted the very best for
him. I was desperate to help Isaiah!
Luckily I heard
about CCRC. They really helped me get my life together.”
The day she arrived she was in tears. Our staff helped her find the best child care for Isaiah andwe arranged financial assistance so she could pay for it. We then helped Gbaper enroll in parenting classes and in a program that led to her finding a job.
“We’re doing so much better — I’m going to school, studying for my psychology degree and working part-time. Isaiah is in the first grade and he is amazing! Thanks to your support of CCRC, we are finally on the right track.
