If I were to start a non-profit organization by eren - February 2020 Scholarship Essay

If I were to start a nonprofit organization it would be to benefit single mothers. My mission would be to make an organization that helps families facing sudden housing instability, income loss, emotional trauma, and social deterioration as a result of divorce or widowhood. To help women find jobs, get educated, secure housing, stabilize their children's emotional states, manage their finances and help one another. I have personally witnessed how hard it is for a single mother to support a family. I lived sharing a bed with my mother and brother for a large portion of my life and moved apartment to apartment, never living in the same place for longer than 2 years. I know how much a single mother will sacrifice for the sake of her two boys. My organization will be put forth not only for the mothers sake but for the children, as I don't want any child to experience the hardships and horrors of desperation. It will include a children's outreach program to provide a positive environment for the children to live like a normal person should.
I personally witnessed what poverty can do to a family, and to a single mother with 2 boys and could barely speak English nonetheless. She tried and tried to find work, and when she finally did it was hard work, cleaning condos and the homes of those more privileged than us. We lived in the country part of Florida at the time (the pan-handle region) so with the social climate of trump supporters it was even hard to be ethnically different (Mexican). My mom also had no luck with relationships ending up with men with money but no heart. This was the hardest part to be honestly, meeting different guys who didn't love nor cared about me or my brother. I don't blame my mother for this, she was just trying to make a family for us in a stable home and source of income. My brother developed schizophrenia (in late 2017) or apparently one is born with it but it didn't appear until he was sixteen. This made it much harder for us, so much so I couldn't take it anymore and decided to move in with my biological father in northern Virginia. I still have a good relationship with her and she now is with a husband makes good money and treats her well. Until recently I didn't realize all she sacrificed for us, she sacrificed her happiness for us and yet she still managed to make us happy throughout the hard times so much that we didn't notice.
I don't think any child deserves to feel alone and worthless, unable to help. I still feel unable to help. This is why I want to make an organization like this to help mothers in need, to support their children and to never have to live the way my mother was forced to live. I will make a society where this is an option for women to take instead of giving up or resorting to morally degridating things. It wouldn't be a final resort for anyone, but rather a helping hand and a push in the right direction.
