Catherine's Mind at Ease

Catherine is a full-time student and single mother to her young son. She was financially challenged with paying for her education and meeting her monthly living expenses. Her determination to complete her education and provide a better life for her son kept her going. However, the cost of necessary items such as food, clothing and diapers often meant that she couldn’t afford to put her son in daycare, purchase textbooks, or to fill the car with gas. This resulted in Catherine missing school, and her son missing out on important interactions with other children.

A grant from Dayforce Cares allowed Catherine to ease her financial burden, and regularly attend school with the hope of achieving her goal to enhance the quality of life for herself and her son.
