Elianna is an aged-out foster youth who has overcome incredible challenges. After spending over five years in a group home and being separated from her family, especially her younger sister, she has worked hard to pull herself out of a deep depression. Currently, she is thriving: excelling in school, staying focused on her goals, and doing everything she can to become independent. She’s incredibly grateful for any support she receives. Elianna loves painting, art, and documentaries, and she often takes the bus to attend community art classes. She’s taking several science courses and plans to pursue a career in sonography.

Elianna is an aged-out foster youth who is working hard to build a stable and independent life. She’s taking five college classes, some at different campuses, and regularly travels to important appointments such as doctor visits, therapy, and psychiatry, all while relying on public transportation. Her current phone keeps shutting off, even after it has been charged. She is in urgent need of a reliable phone to help her navigate to classes, manage her schedule, stay connected, and stay organized using tools like her calendar and notes app, which would make a huge difference in supporting both her education and daily responsibilities.
