Wish submitted by:

Lexi is a bright and outgoing young woman who has spent several years in care with her siblings. Although she is the middle child, she has taken on a motherly role for her two brothers, as they rely on each other for support. Recently, Lexi completed a residential program and is now focused on her future. She has been accepted into an apartment program where she will learn to live independently. Her experiences in care have inspired her to pursue a career in social work.

Lexi is ready to move forward with her life after being stuck in the past for many years. She will be moving into her own apartment and learning to be independent. To communicate with her brothers, foster mom, and social workers, Lexi really needs a phone. After facing many hardships, receiving a phone as a gift will help ease her worries and support her journey toward independence. Having a phone will allow Lexi to stay connected with the people who care about her. It not only provides her with a sense of security but also reminds her that she is not alone in this new chapter of her life.
