GOD HAS HIS REASONS

My name is Charmin and I am a Hurricane Katrina survivor. I had a job, a convertible, a residence, and a business idea that I was trying to sell to the local Wal-Mart when Katrina came through our city. I lost everything. I then boarded a bus that was going to Chicago, IL. Upon arrival the Mayor and his staff were there to help us with temporary housing.
One day I received a call stating that 1-800 Charity Cars, a nationwide 501©3 non-profit charity, was donating 100 vehicles to domestic violence survivors and victims of Hurricane Katrina in Chicago, IL. I was fortunate to receive a 1990 Mercury Sable, “Big Red”, which enabled me to regain my independence and motivation. Without 1-800 Charity Cars I would not be able to continue my dream to market my business idea of a new hair accessory that will be available this fall at Walgreen’s. Due to receiving the vehicle from 1-800 Charity Cars, I am now able to donate “Big Red” to someone less fortunate who has a “dream” to succeed as I did.
