Victoria, 7 years old

Wish submitted by:

Victoria, who recently joined her foster family, has already shown herself to be a remarkably sweet and resilient child despite her challenging background in a family affected by drug addiction. In just a few weeks, she has captured her families' hearts with her infectious joy and eagerness to play, despite arriving with very little of her own. Victoria's love for play is evident in her enthusiasm and ability to find joy in simple activities. Her family looks forward to seeing her grow and thrive in her new environment.

Victoria is really hoping to get a new bike as she starts her new life in foster care with very few things of her own. A bike would mean so much to her, giving her a sense of normalcy and belonging as she goes through this big change. It would be awesome because it would let her explore her new surroundings, have fun being active, and feel like a free-spirited adventurer – something every kid should get to experience. Plus, having a bike could help her feel more confident and make new friends by hanging out and playing outside. Granting this wish would also make her feel really happy and special to have something that's only hers in her new home.
