Mikkel, 16 years old, CA |

Wish submitted by:

Mikkel is a vibrant young lady who has experienced significant trauma and is currently undergoing therapy. After being homeless for months with her siblings, Mikkel has recently moved into a new apartment with her mother, who now has custody of her and her siblings. Music is a big part of Mikkel's life; it serves as a crucial form of therapy and self-care for her.

Mikkel has been struggling with her mental health, and her mother cannot afford to buy her perfumes. This Christmas, receiving a fragrance would mean so much to her. A perfume would allow Mikkel to feel special, smell nice, and carry herself with confidence. It’s more than just a gift—it’s a way to help her feel cared for and uplifted during a difficult time. It would also ease her mother’s worries, showing that Mikkel doesn’t have to miss out on thoughtful gifts simply because of financial challenges. This gesture would bring joy to both Mikkel and her mom, making the holiday truly meaningful.
