Alani, 27 years old, GA

Wish submitted by:

Alani spent five years in the foster care system, and worked unbelievably hard to get to where she is today. Now, she prides herself on being a hardworking mother of two children. She uses her past experiences as motivation to be as determined and hardworking as possible. She makes sure that every day she gets up, she makes a difference in her kids' lives. Foster families taught her important skills that she had never learned in her own household, which has also helped guide her in life. Whenever she has free time from being a mom or working, she likes to read and watch interesting shows.

Alani is in urgent need of a working cell phone for both emergencies and her daily life. She meets with a mentor weekly, and the absence of a phone has hindered her professional development. Recently, she had a baby and is eager to return to work soon. Having an iPhone would significantly aid her in this transition, as it would also allow her to stay in touch with her family, which is incredibly important to her. The ability to communicate with her loved ones and access vital resources is crucial during this time as she navigates motherhood and her career. Alani is prepared to manage the monthly payments as soon as she can receive assistance in obtaining a phone, and she is committed to making this investment in herself and her future. With the right support, she is confident that she can successfully balance her responsibilities and move forward in her professional life.
