Nora, 20 years old, CA | NEEDED BY 08/15

Wish submitted by:

Nora is a strong young woman who has overcome significant challenges as a transgender foster youth. As she works toward independence and personal growth, she is taking a major step forward by enrolling in college. Dedicated to building a brighter future, Nora displays inspiring resilience, determination, and courage as she pursues her goals.

Motivated for the first day of college that is approaching, Mia is asking for a backpack to carry her books and papers. This is her first time going to school for a while, and after several emergency moves from transitional housing programs, she does not have the necessary materials to start school. Granting this wish for a backpack will help her adapt to school and encourage her participation.
