Melissa is a beloved educational assistant and caring grandmother who is known as someone who exudes positivity, even when facing life’s tough challenges.
Her loved ones describe her as being deeply devoted to her family and kind to all around her, always encouraging others to persevere and stay hopeful.
Melissa is the primary caregiver to her three grandchildren, devoting her time and energy to giving them the best life possible, while also taking care of her elderly mother.
On today’s 12 Days of Christmas, we surprise Melissa with gifts to provide some relief around the holidays.
