Tawanesha, 18 years old

Wish submitted by:

Tawanesha entered foster care when she was 12 and has been through many different homes since then. Each move came with its own struggles, but she has stayed strong and hopeful for a brighter future. Now, she's getting ready to move into her first apartment, which is a big deal for her. It means more than just having a place to stay; it's about finding safety, gaining independence, and starting a new chapter in her life. In her quiet moments, Tawanesha finds comfort in reading. She loves getting lost in stories that let her imagine new worlds and reflect on her own life. Her calm and thoughtful nature is one of the things that makes her special. She's not just a survivor; she's someone who is always growing, dreaming, and looking forward to a stable life. Tawanesha’s strength, determination, and kind spirit truly set her apart. She deserves all the support and resources to help her succeed as she steps into adulthood.

Tawanesha is looking for some patio furniture to help create a special outdoor space where she can unwind, reflect, and dive into one of her favorite pastimes—reading. After years spent in foster care, moving from one place to another, she’s finally getting her own apartment and starting to establish a sense of home and stability. Having a cozy, dedicated spot outdoors would give her a retreat where she can feel grounded, safe, and at peace. This addition to her new home would be a wonderful way to support her emotional well-being and would represent the fresh start she has worked so hard to achieve.
