Wish submitted by:

Ella is an amazing person who has overcome some really tough times. For two years, she faced bullying, depression, and feelings of abandonment, but with the help of her mother, she was able to get through it all. They also endured an unsafe environment, which left its scars. But despite all of these setbacks, Ella's resilience has shone through. In her moments of solitude, Ella finds comfort in books, movies, and amusement parks. Her dream is to become a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and make a difference in the healthcare industry. As she sets her sights on college, Ella's journey is not just about overcoming obstacles, but it's about embracing hope and forging a path toward a brighter future.

Ella has been dealing with cystic acne, which can be really painful and uncomfortable. For the last two years, her guardian has had to undergo several surgeries, causing them to miss work and putting a strain on their finances. Because of this, things have been a bit tough for them. Ella often feels insecure about her skin, especially since over-the-counter products haven’t worked for her in the past. However, she goes to weekly therapy sessions that have helped her cope with negative feelings, especially related to her peers and depression. Ella has seen some improvements with her dermatologist's recommendations, but there’s one special product that contains ingredients known to help keep her skin clear and healthy, especially during the summer months when her acne tends to flare up the most. Getting this skincare will help Ella feel like her best self!
