Wheels of Success has used the fictitious name "Latoya" in this article to protect her identity as a domestic violence survivor.

Latoya's supervisor contacted Wheels when he discovered she had resorted to spending $184 a week on rental cars so that she would not be late or absent from her job, when her car broke down and was no longer worth fixing. He states that he knows of "No one more deserving for a Wheels' vehicle". He is looking forward to attending the presentation when Latoya receives her vehicle.

 

Latoya is a single mom of two children, 15 and 7 years old. She is starting over after "kicking out" her abuser. With a positive attitude and an amazing strength to rise above her situation, Latoya has become an example to all those around her of what hard work and determination can do. Between her full and part time jobs, she works 16 hours a day to provide her children with a safe home, food and clothing.
