Alissa loves school, and her favorite subjects are math and science. She also loves dance and sports. Some of her favorite things to do in her free time are listening to music and hanging out with her friends. Alissa lives with her aunt now and is starting over on many things, which is scary, but she is super brave! Alissa is a pretty strong girl who is very independent in many ways. Alissa is very smart.

Alissa is asking for a new flat iron for Christmas. She shared that having her own flat iron would help her feel confident and her prettiest while in foster care. For Alissa, personal items like this are more than just tools—they are a way to express herself, care for herself, and hold onto a sense of normalcy during a time when so much in her life feels uncertain. Having something that is truly hers would give her a boost of self-esteem and joy, helping her feel cared for and valued. This small gift would not only bring her happiness during the holiday season but also support her emotional well-being, giving her a sense of pride, confidence, and comfort in knowing that someone is thinking of her.
