Sneakers for Krystal to celebrate her birthday

Posted Mar 14, 2025
Krystal is really hoping to get a pair of black and yellow Jordans for her birthday. Those colors mean a lot to her, and they represent strength and optimism. Despite the challenges she’s faced in care, she is still hoping to find joy in the things she loves. She believes that receiving these Jordans would make her birthday feel even more special and give her a little boost of happiness and confidence in such an uncertain world.

Krystal is 17 years old and lives in OR

Krystal has faced many challenges in her life, starting from being placed in foster care as a baby. She was adopted twice, hoping to find a loving home, but both adoptions fell through, leaving her feeling like she didn’t belong. Now, she’s in a treatment facility, working on her emotional and psychological issues. Despite the tough journey, Krystal is focused on healing. Drawing is one of the few things that brings her peace; it allows her to escape her struggles and express her feelings. Through art, she finds purpose and strength to keep moving forward, one drawing at a time.
