Who they are

Marguerita, 41, struggles to put food on the table. She has three kids still in school (ages 7, 10, and 13). Part of the working poor, she works two jobs and feels there is never enough time, making tough choices between paying bills and buying food.

Goal

Keep a roof over her head and reliably pay bills each month. Food support has to fit around that without adding risk or hassle.

Digital capability

Owns a cell phone; relies on public wifi and a basic plan at home when she can afford it.

Challenges

Making hard choices with too little time. She’s worried about ICE and keeping her family safe, which raises the stakes on privacy and anonymity in any service she uses.
