Hi, I'm Svitlana, I love spending time outdoors and with family. My goal with Beam is to find stable housing for myself and my 17 year old son. After going through tough times (war in Ukraine, moving to another country) having a secure place to live is crucial for me to rebuild my life.
The biggest challenge I've faced was finding a new home during the current housing crisis. It's not been easy for someone in my situation. I'm working, but it's still difficult given how competitive things are, and being new to this country.
It means a lot to me to know that people want to help me reach my goal. Their support gives me hope and motivation to keep going. When I finally reach my goal, it will feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I'll feel proud and hopeful for the future.
