A coffee maker for Kristiona to feel energized every day
Kristiona, 30 years old, CO
Wish submitted by:
Foster Alumni MentorsKristiona was placed in foster care at the age of two. She was adopted but later bounced around from foster home to foster home at the age of nine. After being returned to foster care, she aged out. Despite facing everyday obstacles and medical issues, Kristiona became independent and started her college journey, which has been successful. She has graduated with her Bachelor's degree and is now looking to continue her education to work with children. Currently, she works as a teacher at an early head start preschool and enjoys every moment of it. Kristiona is committed to breaking the generational cycle of abuse and lack of education. Her ultimate goal is to own and run a summer camp for children in foster care, providing them with not only fun but also therapeutic and mentoring support.
Kristiona’s coffee pot recently broke, and without it, mornings have become much more challenging. She relies on that boost to power through long nights of studying and busy days with her students. Despite the demands on her time and energy, Kristiona is deeply committed to showing the children in her care that they are loved and whole. Having a new coffee pot would help her start each day energized and ready to be her best, most loving, and engaging self for the kids who depend on her
