Meet Shetara

She Lost Her Daughter

Life Is Tough

Testing The Odds
PexelsOne day, Shetara went to the grocery store and luckily found a dollar bill on the floor, and she decided to buy a lottery ticket with it.
It’s Her Lucky Day
PexelsFortunately, Shetara won $100 from the lottery, and her 12-year-old daughter named Rakiya was with her at that time.
Rakiya Had An Idea
YouTube, WJHLShetara was surprised by what her daughter suggested. Rakiya told her, “Mom, we should give that to the police officer who got shot.”
Wounded Cop

Without Hesitation
PexelsRemembering how the cops helped her during her loss, Shetara immediately called the police department to give her donation anonymously, but the police wanted to thank her personally so they tracked her down and learned about her own story.
Giving Back
