This is my story…….Boneshia Hanberry
I am a single young mother, raising a daughter. I dropped out of school at age 16 and needed an opportunity. That’s when I found EDGE. I started attending EDGE January, 14, 2009. I met Ms. Fran, Executive Director and she helped me by accepting me into the EDGE Program and giving me a chance to get my GED. I completed all of my test with high scores. It took me a year to complete but I finally succeeded. I couldn’t have done it without the help of Desiree Simpson, my Case Manager. Now I have my GED and I will be walking in the graduation June 5, 2010. I am putting my paperwork in place so I can go to college. I want to thank my EDGE family and all the people who helped me; Ms. Fran, Ms. Carrie, Mr. Adam, Ms. Evie and Ms. Hartage for sticking with me through the process. I especially want to thank my Mom for not giving up on. My future is ahead of me and this is only the beginning…….
