The Volunteering Page of Leah Andrews

Di’Ana is a Marietta City Schools bus driver. She says she originally chose this line of work because it provided the perfect schedule to spend quality time with her daughter Saniah, now 15. The family currently lives in an apartment in Marietta.

Di’Ana says she loves her job. “I love my kids, and my students are like my babies, all 100-plus of them! The work environment at Marietta is nothing less than family.”

“I want to become a homeowner because I want to break the cycle of renting and building someone else's dreams rather than focusing on my dream of providing my daughter with a forever home that we can pass down for generations,” she says.

Di’Ana says she is also super excited to help on the other Marietta houses. She says she wants to tell the sponsors, donors, and volunteers how much she genuinely appreciates the opportunity to work with them on this life-changing project. “There are no words to express how profoundly grateful I am to you all.”
