Mary, 9 years old

Wish submitted by:

Mary is a quiet little girl living in a foster home with her twin sister. She enjoys reading and coloring, and her favorite colors are yellow and green. Mary loves school and consistently earns good grades. Her artwork has even been displayed in the local library. Mary shares a close bond with her sister, and they support each other during this challenging time. She has a passion for animals and hopes to receive a kitten for her birthday. One of her favorite things is being tucked in bed and receiving big hugs from her foster mom.

Mary is adjusting well to her new placement with some of her extended family. This year, she has expressed a desire to receive her own Easter basket. She is excited about celebrating Easter in her new home and is looking forward to the family’s Easter egg hunt in the yard. In the past, Mary has always had to share her Easter treats with her older siblings and has never had the chance to receive a chocolate rabbit of her own. Helping the family by granting this wish for Mary would be a significant support, especially as they have several children to care for.
