Jessica, 18 years old

Wish submitted by:

Jessica recently entered foster care and unfortunately, she and her siblings were split up. Her grandmother is working hard to bring the kids together again with her, but until then Jessica sings and writes poetry to stay positive. Jessica can also sew and knit.

Jessica is an inspiring young woman gracefully juggling the demands of work and her studies. With the holiday season approaching, she is filled with anticipation for her first Christmas celebration in her cozy new apartment, surrounded by friends who have become like family. In her spare moments, she makes a sincere effort to visit local food pantries, hoping to contribute and gather some nutritious food items. However, her hectic schedule often prevents her from arriving in time to participate in these events. This wish provides her with the opportunity to stock her kitchen with healthier meal options, allowing her to enjoy homemade meals in the comfort of her home rather than resorting to the convenience of fast food.
