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 has been slowly building a social media presence online as an active advocate for other foster youth. She wants to dive deeper into her influence and content creation to speak on foster youth advocacy and grow her reach. She would love to have these mics, which will help her take her videos to the next level!
