Wish submitted by:

Alexa is a confident individual who has navigated life's challenges largely on her own. Currently, she is receiving support services from the Department of Children and Family Services, but she remains determined and focused on her future. Aspiring to become a NICU nurse, Alexa is dedicated to helping others in need. In addition to her ambitions, she is a caring sibling who makes it a priority to visit her younger half-siblings whenever she can.

Alexa leads a busy life, balancing work and personal commitments. She's trying to find a healthy mix between the two. One small joy for her is getting a meal from her favorite spot, Panera Bread, when she can afford it. This holiday season, let’s make sure she gets to enjoy that meal, giving her a nice break in the midst of all the holiday chaos.
