A Cozy Blanket for Elli to sit by the fire this year

Elli, 18 years old

Wish submitted by:

Foster Alumni Mentors

Elli entered the foster care system after enduring years of abuse and neglect by her biological family. She is finally thankful to feel at peace and safe where she is in her foster home. She has overcome so much in her life and has excelled in school all through the trauma she faced. Elli has worked hard to be accepted into a prestigious high school program where she will be able to earn her associates degree as she completes high school. It is a very rigorous program that gets high school students started on their college career and they can transfer their credits to many universities worldwide. She hopes to one day be a gaming designer and influence kids that are just like her and help others stay connected.

Elli loves blankets, she loves to cuddle up with a good book and read by the fire in the colder months. For Christmas she would love a warm, oversized fuzzy blanket that she can curl up with and get lost in a story. She would love a grey colored one because it could also act as a bedspread and go with her light gray walls in her bedroom.
