A laptop for Alena to help her stay on top of her school work

Alena, 11 years old

Wish submitted by:

Grace Retreat Foster Care and Adoption Services

Alena is placed in a foster home with her sister and two other foster children. She says she feels safe when her sister is around. Alena is outgoing, but can be shy when she meets new people.

Alena wishes for a laptop that would not only assist her in completing her schoolwork but also keep her connected to the world around her. She believes having her own computer would give her a sense of independence in her, alleviating the little burdens of borrowing her foster mom’s computer. It’s a small wish for her, but it is a step forward in her journey towards self-sufficiency.
