Briana, 25 years old

Wish submitted by:

Briana faced adversities in going into foster care due to violence and tragedies of mental health in her family. She has persevered through those struggles and today serves on the board of directors for Stepping Forward and has dedicated her life to speaking and advocacy work in non-profit spaces for youth in care.

Briana recently got laid off from her job and has been building her own business as a yoga and meditation instructor and cultivating community. During this time, though, Briana has faced hardships maintaining financial stability and is currently in need of groceries after she has paid all of her bills. This request has been divided into two parts so that Briana can get everything she needs. This is wish 1 of 2.
