Piper is a shy yet talented girl who has faced significant challenges in her life. Since 2018, her single mother has been battling cancer, which has impacted their family dynamic. The COVID-19 pandemic made remote learning tough for Piper, leading to feelings of isolation and difficulties in keeping up with her studies. Recently diagnosed with a learning disability, she grapples with shame and faces bullying from peers, affecting her self-esteem and discouraging her smile. Despite these obstacles, Piper is creative and passionate about art, making beautiful bracelets and launching a successful collection for breast cancer awareness. While she desires supportive friendships, past hurt makes her wary of trusting others. She enjoys video games, music, and YouTube, which offer her moments of joy amidst her challenges.

Piper really wants a card shuffler. It would make her extremely happy and provide a fun way for her to play games with her friends and family. She lives in a low-income neighborhood, which can be tough, but she stays strong. Piper has a learning disability, but she shows her creativity in many ways. She also goes to group therapy six times a month to help with her feelings. Having a card shuffler would not only be a source of entertainment for her but also help her connect with friends, making her social life better and boosting her overall happiness.
