Nita Graduates!

We met Nita under the bridge about 5 years ago. She is the 3rd generation in her family to have been homeless. As a result she only went to school through 5th grade. She fled with her three children from an abusive husband. She lived in a shelter for 18 months before getting into her own housing. When we met them, they had no food in the cupboards, no refrigerator, and little furniture. She was beat down and living day to day.

Last week she graduated with honors with her AAS degree in computer information systems from Pulaski Tech. Wow.

She is now on the job market looking for work.

He lifts up the poor into a place of honor,
May the glory of the Lord endure forever.
