Grace, 16 years old

Wish submitted by:

Grace is an optimistic, loving, kind, and helpful individual. She can be very silly at times, striving to make others around her feel comfortable and laugh with her. She has a strong passion and dedication to learning, despite her intellectual disability. Grace entered the foster care system without her two sisters and has struggled with being separated from her mother. Grace is very motivated to work on her goals while her mother works on hers for the goal of reunification.

Grace has a birthday coming up! She is learning who she is and how to express herself through her clothing and makeup as she navigates her first year of high school. However, she is financially limited and would love a gift card to purchase a pair of sneakers to wear to school. Since she has to wear a uniform, she can only accessorize with shoes or makeup and jewelry. She would be so happy to get these cute black and white Nikes!
