A Holiday Treat for Justine who loves Starbucks
Juliana, 16 years old, OR |
Wish submitted by:
The Lost & Found InstituteJuliana was eight when her life changed dramatically after her parents were deported, placing her in foster care. She moved from home to home in multiple placements, feeling increasingly lost and disconnected from her culture. The unfamiliar food and absent traditions left her feeling lonely and out of place. After years of searching for a sense of belonging, Juliana is finally with a foster family that understands and embraces her. They make an effort to connect with her background by preparing familiar meals and celebrating her traditions. For the first time, Juliana feels safe and accepted, shedding the weight of isolation for a sense of comfort and belonging.
This holiday season, Justine is hoping for a Starbucks gift card. She loves the idea of grabbing her favorite drinks, trying new seasonal flavors, and having a cozy place to hang out with friends or relax on her own. To her, a Starbucks gift card isn’t just about coffee—it’s about little moments of joy, warm cups on cold days, and a special treat she can look forward to throughout the season.
