Wish submitted by:

Vanna is a kind, open-minded young woman who recently graduated from high school and is now exploring college and career paths, including the possibility of studying veterinary science. After spending several years in extended foster care and eventually aging out, she is eager to find a stable, supportive environment where she can continue growing and gaining essential life skills. Shy at first, Vanna blossoms when surrounded by encouragement and community. She looks forward to meeting others on similar journeys, learning how to budget and communicate confidently, and building friendships that will help her thrive in adulthood. She is truly excited to grow in a space that values positivity, connection, and personal development.

Vanna is navigating life as a college student and former foster youth, balancing her studies, self-discovery, and self-care. Rainy days can make everything feel more challenging without the right gear. These waterproof rain boots would help Vanna stay dry and comfortable while commuting or running errands, allowing her to move through her day with confidence no matter the weather. It’s a practical gift with a simple yet meaningful impact—providing reliability, comfort, and peace of mind.
