Miyahh, 22 years old, MN | 1 DAY WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Miyahh is a resilient and determined individual who has faced the challenges of homelessness for over a year yet continues to persevere without giving up. Their interests include yoga and meditation, which help maintain balance and focus, as well as pursuing real estate and trading, showing ambition for a stable and successful future. What truly makes this individual special is their unwavering commitment to being their own person and never giving up on their goals, no matter the difficulties they face. They are Black/African-American and Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander and have spent about 7 to 8 years in foster care, which shaped their strength and independence. Despite the obstacles, they earned their GED and are medically certified with both PCA and CNA credentials, demonstrating dedication to personal growth and professional development.

Even during homelessness, Miyahh continues to invest in herself: she holds PCA and CNA certifications and dreams of pursuing real estate as a path to stability. She knows that feeling put-together and comfortable in her own skin matters when she walks into appointments, interviews, or simply through the world. She is wishing for gift cards to Target and Victoria’s Secret so she can choose bras, underwear, and clothing that truly fit her body and style. Being able to pick out her own items would give her a sense of dignity, self-care, and control at a time when so much of life feels out of her hands, reminding her that she deserves comfort and confidence, too.
