Rayna, 20 years old, PA |

Wish submitted by:

Rayna is a creative, curious, and passionate young adult studying Media and Communications at Arcadia University. They enjoy anime, journaling, manga, music, video games, and tarot and oracle readings. At nine years old, they entered the foster care system and faced many challenges, including turning to shelters when a foster home was no longer safe. Despite the mental, physical, and financial difficulties of adjusting to life after foster care, Rayna has shown remarkable resilience, working through their experiences with the help of therapy and a strong determination to heal. Those who know them see their strength, kindness, and ability to find joy in the things they love, even after all they have been through.

Rayna is asking for an acoustic guitar. They played guitar frequently during high school, and it brought them a deep sense of peace and emotional grounding. Music has always been very meaningful to them, and being able to connect to it more deeply by playing or creating it themselves brings a great deal of joy and comfort. Having the opportunity to return to playing guitar would give them a healthy outlet for self-expression, stress relief, and creativity.
