K'nyia, 19 years old, CA | 13 DAYS WAITING

Kamalii Foster Family Agency

K’nyia has spent most of her life dealing with the challenges of foster care. She moved from home to home, often feeling unstable and experiencing loss. Unlike many young people, she didn't have consistent support, guidance, or a feeling of security. Despite this, K’nyia showed a quiet strength and determination to keep going. She knows what it’s like to feel vulnerable and to need care and compassion. Becoming a nurse is her way of turning her struggles into something positive and helping others heal.

K’nyia is wishing for a foot massager to help her manage daily stress and support her overall well-being. As a young adult working hard to balance school planning, employment goals, and independent living responsibilities, she often spends long hours on her feet. This has led to frequent soreness and tension, making it difficult for her to fully relax at the end of the day. A foot massager would provide her with a simple, consistent way to care for herself at home—promoting better circulation, reducing stress, and helping her recharge mentally and physically. K’nyia is incredibly determined and continues to push herself toward independence, even while navigating challenges like social anxiety and a demanding schedule.
