Hello, I am Sonia. I'm a single mother who has had to start over in a new country with my two children and my mother. This has been my biggest challenge. We left behind our stable home, jobs, and studies, as well as our family and friends, because we had no other choice. We faced a daunting reality of no job, no relatives, no friends, and the added difficulty of communicating in a language that is not our mother tongue. Despite these challenges, my heart is filled with love for my children, and my greatest joy comes from spending time with my family. I also find fulfillment in serving others and making a positive difference in their lives.
My primary goal with Beam is to secure a job that will enable me to provide my family with a stable and cosy home to rent. I want to repay the kindness and support that society has extended to me by giving back in a meaningful way. Despite feeling alone and lacking language skills, I am incredibly blessed and grateful for the numerous individuals who have encouraged me to pursue my goals. Their unwavering support has been a source of strength and inspiration on my journey.
In two years, I envision a life filled with gratitude and purpose. I hope to pay forward the kindness and support I've received by helping others in the same way my supporters have helped me. My goal is to continue growing, learning, and making a positive impact on the lives of those around me. I am excited to launch my Beam donations page because I hope my journey can serve as inspiration for others who have faced similar challenges, affirming that anything is achievable with determination.
