Sarah, 16 years old, OR

Wish submitted by:

Sarah has gone through tough times, especially when her mother passed. She wished a family member would take care of her, but instead, she ended up in foster care, moving between different homes and feeling sad. During this challenging period, she discovered a passion for poetry. What began as small notes became her safe space, helping her express her feelings when she felt overlooked. Her poems are honest and full of pain, hope, and yearning. Sarah dreams of publishing a book to share her story and give a voice to others who feel lost. Through her writing, she is discovering that beauty can emerge from deep pain.

Sarah is asking for a gift card to Ulta to purchase new makeup, which will bring her comfort and confidence. Makeup allows her to express herself and feel in control during tough times. It helps her look and feel put together, and she enjoys experimenting with different colors and styles. Choosing makeup for herself in the store would mean a lot to her. It will bring joy and serve as a reminder that she matters. This wish was broken into two parts, to allow for an amazing shopping experience! This is wish 1 of 2.
