A laptop for Ana Maria to keep up with her schoolwork

Ana Maria, 17 years old

Wish submitted by:

Hillsides

Ana Maria was placed in foster care due to neglect, which resulted in her experiencing trauma. She has limited communication with her birth family, only speaking with them occasionally by telephone. Despite her circumstances, she has shown remarkable resilience. Ana Maria is reserved yet well-mannered. She expresses a desire to focus on her studies and hopes to attend college to become a nurse. She is eager to learn new things and demonstrates a caring nature. If she continues to excel in her studies, she has the potential to be a wonderful nurse. Ana Maria has developed a positive relationship with her foster parents and enjoys helping around the home.

Ana Maria really wants to do well in school. She is grateful for what she has and manages to keep her grades up, even though she doesn't have a computer at her foster home—she borrows one from her foster parents sometimes. After school, she often goes to the library to get her work done or uses her friend's computer. Recently, she started virtual therapy because she’s been feeling anxious and has had some tough memories about living with her birth family. Having a computer would really help Ana Maria do her schoolwork at home and join her therapy sessions more easily.
