Wish submitted by:

Jojo is a former foster youth who has dedicated her adult life to serving and advocating for foster youth in her community. She has invested her heart and soul into this passion. As a wife, mother, and adoptive mom, she is loved and respected by her peers. Jojo enjoys educating others on how to share their stories safely.

Jojo's heart is heavy as she navigates a challenging time. Her biological mother is facing a serious illness and will soon undergo surgery. This situation weighs on Jojo, and her greatest wish is to spend precious moments with her mother before and after the operation. To make this happen, Jojo plans to take time off work—a decision that, while necessary, adds significant stress to her already strained finances. The thought of not being there for her mother and missing the chance to create lasting memories with her children is overwhelming. The kids have few memories of their biological grandma, and it breaks Jojo's heart to think they may lose the opportunity to form a bond with her during this critical time. She's seeking support to cover a hotel for just two nights—an essential refuge for her family as they navigate this emotional journey together. Any help would not only ease her financial burden but also help preserve the precious connection between her children and their grandmother, making it a moment to cherish forever.
