Sia is an incredible young lady who, along with her sister, was accepted into a home with the hope of being adopted and living together. Unfortunately, the foster parents decided to keep her sister and adopt her younger sibling, leaving Sia feeling abandoned. Despite this, both sisters remain close and supportive of each other. Sia has been battling depression and feelings of isolation, even though she is known as one of the sweetest girls you could meet. She finds solace in singing, listening to music, playing sports, and spending time with animals. Sia also has a talent for drawing. During this challenging time in her life, Sia needs love and support as she copes with emotional struggles.

Sia’s heart is set on an Oculus this Christmas, a wish that goes far beyond a mere gaming device; it symbolizes hope and a chance to escape. Having experienced the captivating allure of her friend’s Oculus, she was transported into thrilling worlds that made her forget her worries and filled her with joy. For Sia, gaming is not just a hobby; it’s a lifeline—a means to carve out a sanctuary where her spirits can soar, especially during her toughest moments. As an avid gamer, the thought of receiving this gift is almost overwhelming for her. It’s hard to convey how much it would mean to have a tool that could alleviate some of her loneliness, especially when she misses her sister or feels the weight of depression pressing down on her. It’s not just about play; it’s about finding connection and comfort in times of need. Sia is one of the sweetest souls you could encounter. Always ready to lift others even while she grapples with her own emotional struggles, she finds joy in singing, immersing herself in music, playing sports, and being around animals. Her remarkable talent for drawing reveals another layer of her creativity and passion. However, during this challenging chapter in her life, she longs for support and understanding. This Christmas, giving her the Oculus would not only enrich her life—it might just help heal her heart.
