Nesha, 20 years old, OR | 8 DAYS WAITING

The Lost & Found Institute

Nesha grew up moving between foster homes, never feeling settled. This constant change made her feel unseen and unheard. She often kept her feelings to herself because she didn’t trust anyone enough to share them. Instead of letting her tough past hold her back, she used it as motivation. Nesha decided to become the person she needed when she was younger—someone who listens and helps others heal. Now, she’s studying to be a therapist to create safe spaces for young people, especially those in foster care. For Nesha, it's a mission to break the silence and support those who need it.

Nesha is asking for a pair of flats to wear as part of her professional attire. She’s about to start an internship and wants to look polished and confident as she steps into this next chapter. Having a cute, comfortable pair of shoes she can wear day to day would help her feel prepared and put together while balancing her schoolwork and internship responsibilities.
