Valerie, 13 years old, NJ | 14 DAYS WAITING | NEEDED BY 09/26

Wish submitted by:

CASA NJ - Cumberland, Gloucester and Salem Counties

Valerie was removed from her father's home after an investigation into abuse. This trauma led her to experience a significant emotional crisis. Valerie is now working closely with a therapist to begin her healing journey. She has been placed in a youth shelter and is making progress. Valerie enjoys spending her quiet time being creative and journaling.

There is no better feeling than being celebrated on your birthday! This wish will provide Valerie with an extra surprise to open on their special day. Although their celebrations may look different this year, it will remind them that they are valued and remembered on this important occasion!
