Our club’s Live Your Dream award recipient is Faye Bailey-Reed. She is a mother of 3 and she brought 2 of her children, Faith and Otis, to celebrate in her success. You could tell that they are proud of their mother who is studying at American River college and due to graduate this year with an Associates degree on Human Services. Her goal is to be a youth counselor. She has had many challenges in obtaining her goals in school. With 3 children, juggling work and school has been challenging and she managed to obtain a job offered through the Calworks work/study program this fall at ARC that allows her to work at the school and obtain child care assistance. She has learned the importance of budgeting when getting paid only once each month. Her $1,500 award will help ease her mind of her financial challenges while she finishes school.
