Tina, 29 years old, CA

Wish submitted by:

Tina was in and out of foster care through most of her childhood and teen years. Despite this, Tina has worked hard to create a great life for her and her son. She is now a full time college student and also working to support herself and her son. For the first time, Tina is excited to have her own place just for her and her son. They love playing board games and video games together in their free time. Tina is a kind, caring, positive person who always thinks about the people around her.

After a long period of instability, Tina and her son have finally moved into a place they can call home. Previously, they were couch surfing and staying with friends and family. Now, they have their own space for the first time. Tina is a full-time college student and works hard to support her small family. Although she has secured their apartment and covered the basics, they still need a dining room table. Currently, they are eating meals on the floor. A dining table would not only make things more convenient but would also create a sense of home. It would give them a space to eat, do homework, and play games together. A simple table would symbolize stability, family time, and a fresh start for Tina and her son.
