Violet, 30 years old, CA | NEEDED BY 02/16

Wish submitted by:

Violet spent three years in the system and did not receive any services after she was emancipated. Taking matters into her own hands, she decided to return to school to earn her diploma. But she didn’t stop there! Violet continued to push for her education and graduated with her Bachelor’s degree. While in college, she participated in a work-study program with the Guardian Scholars and enjoyed giving back to the foster youth community. Violet hopes to find a career that allows her to work with at-risk youth. Additionally, she is a small business owner who creates handmade moon phase intention-based candles and other products. Her dream is to attend graduate school for post-secondary education so that she can work with Guardian Scholars programs in community colleges.

Violet will be featured as a returning Foster Youth Flea Market vendor for her second time to sell her candles, crystal goodies, and more! Violet needs support to help her cover supplies and materials to make her candles and prepare her products for the February flea market. She will be so happy to get some help with her needs and be able to continue with her small business venture!
