Ellie, 17 years old, IN |

Wish submitted by:

Ellie is a sensitive and imaginative young artist who finds comfort in expressing herself through painting, drawing, and writing stories. She has a gentle heart and often looks out for her younger brother, their bond deepened by the time they spent together in foster care. Though her journey has included moments of instability, Ellie’s creativity has been a steady light, helping her make sense of the world around her. Being back home with her mom has brought a sense of hope, and she continues to dream and create with quiet resilience.

Ellie wishes for a set of cozy long-sleeve shirts. After everything she’s been through, even small comforts like having warm, soft clothes of her own mean more than most people realize. Long sleeves help her feel secure and comforted, especially during the colder months, and having shirts that reflect her personality would help her feel seen and special. This gift would bring not just warmth but a quiet sense of care and stability to her everyday life.
