Maria, 25 years old

Wish submitted by:

Maria is a caring young woman and single mother to a beautiful girl. She has spent many years in the shelter system and has been left to deal with many traumas far beyond her years. Regardless of the many challenges in her life, Maria is a resilient and loving mother; she maintains a smile on her face and always strives to be the best version of herself.

Maria is currently homeless and facing significant challenges due to a lack of resources. Despite these difficult times, she is trying to stay positive. As winter in New York City brings cold temperatures, she is looking for warm clothing. Specifically, she needs a couple of pairs of pants, long-sleeve shirts or thermals, and a sweatshirt to help her layer up.
