I recently found out that our wonderful babysitter has been an orphan since she was 14 years old. She has been out of the system and supporting herself since she was 18. She has a car, an apartment, and is attending the local community college but she is struggling to make ends meet. Are there any government programs? Are there any foundations? Scholarship programs? etc.... My husband and I have offered to take her in but she is an adult and wants to remain independent. Any ideas?
Thank you so much!!!!

You should go to her CC registration office and find out what scholarship are available, sometimes being from another culture or just because she is in need will qualify her for the school program.

I think once you turn 18, you are not called an orphan anymore, just a person with deceased parents
