Fab, 23 years old, NJ

Wish submitted by:

Fab grew up in foster care and faced abuse from a young age, but she never let it break her spirit. At 19, she met her father for the first time, choosing forgiveness over resentment. She's since found a supportive community, made friends who feel like family, and made real strides managing her depression, expressing herself through fashion and makeup along the way.

Another amazingly generous supporter is underwriting the cost of all of the longest-waiting wishes, so this wish is just $25 – today only! *** Despite her struggles with social anxiety, insecurities, and a history of abuse, Faberge has discovered her passion for teaching and hairstyling. Her recent journey towards healing and self-discovery has led her to realize her talent for doing hair and her deep desire to share her knowledge with others. She dreams of leading a monthly class on personal care, where she can teach her peers essential life skills such as curling, braiding, and other hairstyling techniques. By doing so, Faberge hopes to not only impart practical skills but also instill a sense of confidence and self-worth in others. To make this dream a reality, Faberge requires a few mannequin stands to conduct her monthly classes effectively. These tools will not only serve as teaching aids but also symbolize the growth and transformation that Faberge and her peers can achieve together. These stands will support Faberge's journey towards healing and self-acceptance. By investing in Faberge's dream, you will be helping her rewrite her narrative and empowering her to become a beacon of hope for others who have experienced similar struggles.
