Matilde, 17 years old, FL

Wish submitted by:

Matilde is a vibrant and determined teenager with an intellectual disability who refuses to let challenges slow her down. Facing significant trauma in her early childhood, Matilde has been in foster care for several years. She is now in a stable and loving home where she is able to foster her love for spending time outdoors, soaking up the sunshine, and dancing to music. Matilde eagerly jumps at any opportunity to participate in the Special Olympics, where she thrives on teamwork and encouragement.

Matilde is always on the move, whether she’s exploring the outdoors or dancing to her favorite songs. Her active lifestyle means she goes through shoes quickly, and she needs a reliable pair that can keep up with her energy. Matilde loves expressing herself through fashion and playful styles. A new pair of shoes would not only keep her comfortable but also boost her confidence as she continues to thrive in all her activities.
