Wish submitted by:

Emily is the middle of three siblings and is getting ready to begin fourth grade. She has a calm, creative personality and enjoys spending time at home with her family. Some of her favorite activities include listening to music, watching her favorite TV shows, riding her bike around the neighborhood, and expressing her style through fun jewelry and accessories. Emily enjoys the simple things in life and looks forward to making new memories with her siblings and friends. Emily's family has overcome significant housing challenges, including a period of living in a hotel while her mother worked hard to secure stable housing. Through these experiences, Emily has shown resilience and continues to grow into a thoughtful, kind young girl. She is excited for the new school year and all the opportunities it will bring.

Emily likes to take short naps after school to recharge. She finds comfort in resting in her bed, where she can read a good book as well. Recently, Emily received a new bed frame that she loves, but she needs a new mattress that can support her body and promote a good night's sleep. With a new mattress, Emily hopes to wake up feeling refreshed and energized to start her day.
