The Lost & Found Institute

Alex is a fun-loving and adventurous person who really enjoys being outdoors. Whether skateboarding, hiking on trails, or swimming in the ocean, being outside makes Alex feel free. Her favorite thrill is cliff diving—standing at the edge, feeling the wind, and then jumping in. She loves the excitement of it all, especially when it comes to roller coasters; the bigger the drop, the more she laughs! Life hasn’t always been easy for Alex. She entered the foster care system when she was just five years old after losing her mother. Since then, she has moved between different foster homes, which has made it hard for her to feel safe and settled. But Alex keeps hoping that this time, with her current placement, she might really belong somewhere and build trust with others. Despite everything she's been through, Alex is strong and resilient. She's still dreaming big, diving into new adventures, and believing that she can find stability and love in her life.

Alex is asking for a stylish new pair of black Versace sunglasses. They have been talking about them for weeks, attracted to their bold, sleek design and the confidence they seem to exude. To Alex, they are more than just sunglasses—they are a statement piece. They have noticed that designer sunglasses are popular these days, and having a pair of their own would help them feel like they belong while still standing out with their unique edge. Alex has always had a strong sense of personal style, and these sunglasses reflect the bold, fearless energy they bring to everything they do, from skating through the streets to hiking cliffside trails. They imagine wearing them on outdoor adventures, during road trips, and especially at the beach, where they feel the most free. For Alex, owning a pair of Versace sunglasses isn’t just about fashion; it’s about feeling seen, stylish, and powerful in their own skin.
