A Tale of Twin Sisters–Double Trouble and Success – Featured in Jet Setting Magazine
OFA scholarship students and twin models, and aspiring actresses, Karri and Corri Pierce featured in Jet Settings magazine.
The twins define success this way, “Our definition of Success is being able to live your dreams the way you want, independently of any requirements, or any negativity.” Their main goal in life is “to become globally known as influences for good.” “We feel that America needs good people to look up to, and we have good hearts, and we will always uphold that calling to be good influences.”
They have eight other siblings, and describe their childhood in very bleak terms. Their parents were neglectful and abusive, and after their mother ran away, their father attempted to give them away to random strangers, “in hopes that we would have a better life.” A short time after that, the government became involved and split up the family, because Karri and Corri are twins they were allowed to stay together, but despite this small piece of luck, their lives soon became very tumultuous.

Hi! I’m one of The Twinz!!! I just want to share with everyone- whenever you’re feeling down, o feling sorry for yourself, remember to do ONE thing. Count your blessings.
Think about the country and state in particular you live in and how blessed you are to even live in your situation. Think about how lucky you are to be free, to have the miraculous gift of hearing, vision, walking, think of how blessed you are to have arms, thumbs, legs, hair, a job, to be able to go to school in America and for former foster outh- to have it ENTIRELY paid for! Think about how lucky you are to hav friends, and people who arent even related to you and that have probably never met you be supportive (OFA)!!! Think about the many people that DO care about you! THink about your faith, your leaders, the people you look up to! Think about your dreams and stay on the path to fulfilling them. The first step to making your dreams come true- is to start.
Twincerely
