Analyse, 18 years old, CA

Wish submitted by:

Analyse has faced many changes and challenges with incredible strength. After moving from one city to another, she was placed in a group home. When she turned 18, she transitioned into an Extended Foster Care apartment to begin her journey toward independence. Her goal is to enroll in community college, though she’s still exploring which major to pursue. What she does know is that she wants to make a difference, reaching out and creating positive change for younger generations who may face challenges similar to her own. In her free time, Analyse enjoys cooking, baking, and swimming. She especially loves going on walks, sharing that it’s when she feels the most free and has time to reflect and think.

Because Analyse had to move, she wasn’t able to bring all of her belongings with her, and many of the items she left behind were her winter clothes and shoes. When she first arrived, the weather in San Diego was warm, but now that it’s getting colder, Analyse doesn’t have what she needs to stay comfortable and warm. A Ross gift card would give her the option to shop and pick out shoes and clothing that fit her needs and style. Granting this wish will allow Analyse to feel cared for and supported as she continues building her life. This request has been split into two parts. This is wish 1 of 2.
