Jessica, 23 years old, CA

Wish submitted by:

Jessica’s foster care experience was challenging at first. Being around people she didn’t know made it difficult to adjust. However, once she became more familiar with the foster care system, things began to improve. The system continued to connect her with valuable resources, helping her transition into adulthood. When she turned 18, they supported her in getting her own place, and by 21, they assisted her in securing Section 8 housing. Over time, the foster care system helped shape Jessica into a more independent person. Today, she is a strong, independent woman who faces challenges head-on. She remains highly motivated and focused on reaching her goals in life. In her free time, Jessica enjoys spending time with her family and loved ones, as well as striving for personal growth and success.

Jessica is requesting an iPad to enhance her academic progress and access essential resources. This device would be instrumental in helping her complete schoolwork efficiently and stay connected with important educational and support services. Having reliable technology is critical for her success, as the iPad would provide the necessary tools to stay organized, participate in virtual learning, and communicate effectively with teachers and support staff.
