Maritza: Lead With Your Heart

A Better Life

Unfortunately, Maritza missed Sierra’s performance. Sierra doesn’t really understand, and is upset.

Maritza heads to a food truck to get another bottle of water. While there, she sees a jar with a photo of a family on it. The food truck owner explains that the family has been separated because the father has been detained by immigration. The jar is to try to help the family collect enough money for legal fees.

Maritza generously donates all of her winnings from the 5K. Sierra sees the act of generosity and forgives Maritza for missing her performance.

As Maritza goes to race another classmate, she realizes… one of the girls in the photograph was Mia!
