$100 to assist family helping 3 teenage siblings

Today's recipient of a $100 bill through our Believe Project is Krista Budzisz of Palatine. Here is her story ...

"A family at our church recently welcomed three children into their home. The family has been granted temporary guardianship of the teenage siblings who were in dire need of transitioning from their previous environment to a safe, loving home.

"This family of four became seven overnight, and has embraced the three new teens, who are working through significant trauma. The teens, who came from a complicated and difficult background, are in need of medical attention, clothing and many basic needs.

"A $100 bill would bless them as the teens have been wearing expired disposable contacts and have tooth cavities that need to be addressed immediately, among other needs."
