Kirsten, 22 years old | 8 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Foster Alumni Mentors

Kirsten is an ambitious, kind, hard-working young lady. Growing up, she bounced around a lot and ended up in kinship care. After leaving her aunt's home, she struggled to find a place of her own and finally had stability in her life. Kirsten is an amazing mother of 3 little ones, which keeps her busy full-time. She is so grateful that she gets to be the mom she always wanted growing up and loves her children so much. Though she has worked through many struggles in life, things are finally starting to come together and she can feel life getting better. She loves the outdoors and loves to be with her family.

Kirsten has recently fallen behind on a few bills due to unexpected car repairs that couldn’t be put off any longer. The added financial pressure has made things especially stressful. She’s doing her best to stay on track, but right now, she urgently needs a bit of support with getting a gas card to help her and her family get to appointments until next month. Granting this wish would make a meaningful difference during this tough time. This request has been split into two wishes to allow for enough transportation assistance for the month. This is wish 1 of 2
