Jade, 17 years old

Wish submitted by:

Jade is super sweet and very soft spoken. She continues to make the honor roll no matter what her circumstances are at home. Jade would like to attend a HBCU when she graduates high school. She devotes her free time to helping children and deterring children from violence.

Jade wants to feel genuinely connected with her peers. This Christmas, she desires a Stanley cup to help her stay hydrated while engaging in meaningful conversations over hot or cold drinks. Although she wants to fit in with her friends at school, she is finding it challenging. As she takes a well-deserved break from work to focus on her mental health and education, Jade is also navigating the difficulties of limited financial resources.
