Adrianna, 16 years old

Wish submitted by:

Adrianna has experienced multiple placements in foster homes and group homes during her four years in care. After being absent for five months, she was eventually placed with her godmother. Adrianna shares a strong bond with her godmother and enjoys activities such as doing her hair, playing basketball, and contemplating her future. She aspires to become a phlebotomist before continuing her education to become a nurse. Adrianna values her independence and often helps around the house to develop her life skills.

Adrianna has faced challenges with her self-esteem due to past experiences related to human trafficking. However, she is now starting to feel more like herself and is embracing self-care for her mental well-being. With her birthday approaching, she is excited about the idea of visiting Bath and Body Works to choose some wonderful new scents for herself. This step not only reflects her growing confidence but also marks a special way for her to celebrate her journey toward self-acceptance.
