Daniela, 11 years old, NJ | NEEDED BY 11/28

Wish submitted by:

Daniela immigrated to the U.S. from Romania at age 9 due to her biological parents' inability to care for her and her siblings. After entering the foster care system, she was adopted by a New Jersey family, along with another Romanian child. Despite being intelligent and learning English quickly, Daniela struggled to adjust and has since lived with two more families. She is currently recommended for residential treatment before potentially being reunified with a family interested in adopting her. Daniela enjoys visiting her resource parents and is eager to learn new coping skills. She hopes to attend college and become a veterinarian to help animals.

There is no better feeling than being celebrated on your birthday! This wish will provide Daniela with an extra surprise to open on their special day. Although their celebrations may look different this year, it will remind them that they are valued and remembered on this important occasion!
