Caitlin, 17 years old, ME

Wish submitted by:

Caitlin is an artistic child with a great smile who has been moved between foster homes for years. She loves engaging with others through arts and crafts. Living in foster care has been challenging for her, and she is adjusting to a new city, hoping to reconnect with her biological brother. Caitlin enjoys typical teenage activities, such as going to coffee shops and chatting with friends. She also loves the outdoors, animals, and creating amazing pieces of art.

Caitlin is starting a new school that’s conveniently within walking distance of a busy McDonald’s. She loves hanging out with friends, and this McDonald’s is the perfect spot to socialize where all the kids hang out. Unfortunately, she does not have the money to buy meals when she is there with her friends. Throughout the school year, Caitlin would be thrilled to take a few trips after school to buy a meal as she gets to know her new classmates and makes new friends. School has already begun and she doesn't want to feel left out. This excitement for after-school hangouts will make her transition to the new school even more enjoyable.
