Elvira, 31 years old

Wish submitted by:

Elvira was, unfortunately, impacted by the foster care system, experiencing over thirty placements. Now, she is a dedicated social worker and a single mother, driven by her passion for making a positive impact in her community. She currently works as a Community Resource Navigator at A Sense of Home while pursuing her master’s degree in social work. Elvira aspires to start her own nonprofit organization and eventually earn her PhD, demonstrating her commitment to creating meaningful change for those in need. Outside of her professional life, she enjoys cooking, drawing, and spending quality time with her daughter, Nova, who brings her immense joy and motivation. Elvira's resilience and ambition shine through in every aspect of her life as she continues to advocate for others and inspire those around her.

Elvira is encountering a challenging month as her finances are quite tight, making it hard for her to provide essential groceries for herself and her daughter, Nova. This gift card will be a lifeline for them, enabling Elvira to stock up on nutritious food and ensure that they can enjoy a warm, comforting Christmas dinner together. It will make a significant difference in their lives during this difficult time, allowing them to focus on creating joyful memories rather than worrying about their next meal. This is wish 2 of 2, so that Elvira can fill her cupboards.
