Tinaya, 16 years old, VA |

Wish submitted by:

Tinaya has had a challenging past. She entered the foster care system years ago, starting with kinship care. After experiencing abuse there, she was sent to a facility for three years and is now in the foster system. These experiences have contributed to her struggles with anxiety, mood changes, insomnia, and other complications. Despite everything, Tinaya has a beautiful smile and is finally at peace in her current placement. Her caring nature and willingness to help others are among her many strengths.

Tinaya is a vibrant teenager who has been navigating life in foster care since she was just 8 years old. With a funny and creative spirit, she finds joy in her favorite pastimes, which include painting and experimenting with makeup. As Christmas approaches, Tinaya has her heart set on a chic makeup luggage case. It would be the perfect addition to her collection, allowing her to neatly store all of her makeup brushes, lipsticks, and other essentials in style.
