Chantel is a bright, driven young lady who enters every space with quiet determination and a heart full of resilience. Currently in foster care with her older brother, she draws strength from their bond and the way they’ve learned to lean on each other through every transition, reminding her that family can remain close no matter the circumstances. A passionate track and field athlete, Chantel feels most like herself when she’s running; sprinting gives her a sense of freedom, focus, and purpose. She loves pushing her limits, trying new events, and setting goals that challenge her, and whether she’s training on her own or cheering on her teammates, she brings positivity, dedication, and natural athletic talent. Outside of sports, she is thoughtful, independent, and deeply caring, always noticing when others need encouragement and offering it without hesitation. Chantel enjoys music, spending time with her brother, and dreaming about a future where she continues to grow, stay active, and build a life filled with stability and opportunity.

Chantel wishes for an Ulta gift card so she can explore at her own pace and discover new holiday makeup colors. She loves experimenting with different beauty products and shades. Having a gift card would give her the freedom to choose items that best reflect her personality and style, making it a fun and empowering experience. This would be a special treat that helps her feel confident and excited during the holiday season.
