Edith, 33 years old, CA

Wish submitted by:

Edith is an outgoing and compassionate woman whose greatest motivation in life comes from her children. Their love and presence push her to keep going, no matter the challenges she faces. Having entered the foster care system at just six years old and aging out at eighteen, Edith knows what it means to grow up without consistent support—but she’s used that experience to fuel her passion for helping others. Whether it’s supporting youth or lending a hand to someone in need, Edith leads with heart, empathy, and a deep commitment to giving back.

Edith is a dedicated and loving mother whose strength comes from the challenges she’s faced growing up in foster care. Entering the system at just six years old and aging out at eighteen, she learned early on what it meant to navigate life without a consistent support system. Now, as a mom, she’s determined to create joyful, lasting memories with her children, the kind she didn’t get to have herself. Her wish is to take her kids to the San Diego Zoo for a special day of fun, connection, and exploration. This experience would mean the world to Edith, giving her and her children a chance to enjoy something magical together and create memories rooted in love, adventure, and healing.
