Kirsten, 22 years old, CO

Wish submitted by:

Kirsten is an ambitious, kind, hard-working young lady. Growing up, she bounced around a lot and ended up in kinship care. After leaving her aunt's home, she struggled to find a place of her own and finally had stability in her life. Kirsten is an amazing mother of 3 little ones, which keeps her busy full-time. She is so grateful that she gets to be the mom she always wanted growing up and loves her children so much. Though she has worked through many struggles in life, things are finally starting to come together and she can feel life getting better. She loves the outdoors and loves to be with her family.

Kirsten is about to start an exciting new chapter in her life, beginning a job at a top company in August. However, she is currently facing a tough situation; her food stamps are almost depleted, and the food banks she relies on haven’t been able to provide enough assistance this week. A little support right now could make a big difference, helping her get the nourishment she needs to confidently move forward into her future. This request has been split into two wishes to allow for a successful shopping trip. This is wish 1 of 2.
