This year, 90 students and their families have been helped by the Little Blazer Wishes program, which supports students who are parents trying to meet their children’s holiday needs and wishes.
For Stacia Wilson, a graduate student in the University of Alabama at Birmingham School of Public Health, juggling a rigorous course load while raising her three young children has been a struggle.
“The word stressful does not give it justice,” said the 32-year-old Georgia native. “I feel like I am on an island and the land is slowly sinking and the pieces are disappearing.”
When she got an email from UAB Off-Campus Student Services offering help for the holidays for students who have children, she thought it was a nice gesture and perhaps the promise of some T-shirts. So, she let it sit in her inbox for a few days.
