Si'Asia, 16 years old

Wish submitted by:

Si'Asia is a fun, outgoing young woman with big dreams for the future. Currently in foster care and separated from several of her siblings, she remains positive and focused on her goals. Si'Asia has a passion for hair and makeup and spends a lot of time honing her skills. She hopes to pursue a career in cosmetology and is eager to learn more as she works towards that goal. Despite facing significant challenges, especially since entering foster care, Si'Asia remains determined to succeed. She is dedicated to her studies and is working hard to complete her courses early in order to graduate ahead of schedule.

Since entering foster care, Si'Asia has faced limited opportunities to make choices for herself, often receiving whatever was available rather than having the chance to select things that feel personal to her. Despite these challenges, she remains a resilient, happy, and focused child. For Christmas, Si'Asia would deeply appreciate a gift card, allowing her the rare opportunity to choose items that reflect her unique taste and individuality. This simple gift would bring her a great sense of joy and empowerment, helping her feel seen and valued.
