Sarah, 16 years old

Wish submitted by:

Sarah has experienced many difficult times. When her mother passed away, her life changed forever. She wished a family member would take care of her, but no one did. Instead, she went into foster care, moving from home to home and carrying her sadness with her. Every time she packed her things, it felt as though she were losing a piece of herself. During this difficult time, she found poetry. What started as little notes became her safe space. Writing allowed her to express her feelings when she felt ignored. Her poems are sincere and filled with pain, hope, and longing. Sarah dreams of publishing a book to share her story and give a voice to others who feel lost. Through her writing, she is learning that beauty can come even from deep pain.

Sarah is excited about her upcoming birthday and is hoping to get a new pair of heels to make her day feel special. She wants to dress up and feel confident while celebrating with her loved ones. A nice pair of heels would be the perfect touch to her outfit, making her feel beautiful and happy on her big day. Whether she's going out to dinner or spending time with family and friends, those heels will help make her birthday even more memorable!
