Hello, 

My name is shawne; i'm 32 years old, I'm from Colorado… I am starting this fundraiser for myself. I am trying to raise money for dental costs. My dream is to have a beautiful smile again. I was a victim of domestic abuse and the result of that was losing my teeth, I have been this way for quite sometime now because I do not have enough money to get the work that I need done. To reach my goal, and be able to do the dental work, would mean so much to me, words cant even explain, I would have my true happiness back, my life back! I have lost all confidence in myself, and my self esteem doesn't even exist anymore. There's so much I want to accomplish in life, but I feel like I can't because of the condition of my teeth. We all know how important it is to have a beautiful smile. I just want to wake up one day and be able to show my kids my smile again. 

Thank you for taking the time to read this. I greatly appreciate it.
