Gabby is a sweet and resilient young girl who is currently living with a long-term family friend, where she is thriving and feeling truly supported. She has been through a great deal, and this new placement has given her the opportunity to experience stability, comfort, and a sense of belonging. Although Gabby has three siblings whom she is not living with at this time, she remains connected to family and enjoys the positive relationships she is building in her current home. Gabby is especially excited about starting at a new school and embracing a fresh start. She is motivated by the chance to grow, learn, and create positive experiences for herself. With the support of her foster family, Gabby is beginning this next chapter with hope, confidence, and enthusiasm.

Gabby has been eagerly expressing her desire for a Barbie Dream House for Christmas, a special present that would allow her to fully immerse herself in imaginative play with her Barbie dolls. She has shared with her foster family that this is the first Christmas where she feels she can embrace her childhood without any worries or responsibilities weighing her down. In a heartfelt way, she conveyed how much it means to her to finally have the chance to play with Barbies, something she hasn’t been able to enjoy in the past.
