Raven, 20 years old, NM | 18 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Children, Youth and Families Department

Raven spent many years in foster care before aging out, but she continues to receive support from the state. Despite facing some health challenges, she refuses to let anything stand in the way of her dreams. Accompanied by her dedicated service dog, Raven navigates life with strength and determination. As a first-generation college student and a proud member of the Osage Tribe, she is carving out her own path and inspiring others along the way.

Raven dropped her phone and cracked the screen. At first, she was able to use it despite the damage, but now it has completely stopped working. She wants to be able to stay in touch with friends and family, as well as make important calls for school and medical appointments. Having a new phone would help her be more independent and not rely on others for help.
