Veneacia Chaney

Veneacia Chaney and her daughter, Lola, have shared an apartment for the past five years—a place that’s provided shelter, but never truly felt like home. With rising rent making it harder to stay ahead, Veneacia dreams of giving her daughter more—a stable home with room to grow and, most of all, a backyard where Lola can practice basketball and cheerleading, laugh, and simply be a kid.

Winning a vehicle through Drive for Hope would be a huge step forward for their family. As Veneacia works toward her goal of becoming an elementary school teacher, reliable transportation would help her balance school, work, and life while building the future they both deserve. For her and Lola, a new car—and soon, a new home—means hope, opportunity, and a brighter tomorrow.
