“She is really focused and hardworking,” said Rita Baker, Lindsay’s mother. “She gives everything her all. It’s just amazing.”
“She is a very impressive, talented and focused young lady,” said Candace Gordon, president of the Colorado Springs chapter of the Philanthropic Educational Organization. “She knows where she wants to go and what she needs to do to get there.”
Baker’s sense of focus is one of the qualities that impressed the P.E.O. Sisterhood, an organization dedicated to expanding women’s opportunities through education.

Last month, she and her mother, Dawn Eisses, reached out to friends and family through Facebook after learning about the shelter s need through her aunt, who works at the centre.
