Christal, 21 years old, CA

Wish submitted by:

Christal entered foster care when she was young, but has shown remarkable strength and creativity throughout her journey. Recently, she has been working hard to improve her life and is getting ready to go back to school. She plans to switch from studying child development to culinary arts, which she’s really passionate about. Christal dreams of opening her own bakery someday, where she can create beautiful cakes and pastries. In addition to her love for cooking and baking, she enjoys painting, crafting, and dancing, which bring her joy and purpose. This year, Christal is focused on becoming more independent. She’s learning to drive, wants to get her driver’s license, and is looking for a job that supports her health needs. Eventually, she hopes to move into her own apartment. Christal is open about her experiences in foster care and is excited to learn and grow. She appreciates programs like One Simple Wish and is always looking for guidance and opportunities. With her creativity, determination, and positive attitude, Christal is on her way to building a stable and fulfilling future.

Christal wishes for a new pink office/computer chair because it would support her comfort, focus, and overall well-being as she works toward her educational and personal goals. As she prepares to return to school and spends more time studying, planning, and completing coursework, having a comfortable and supportive chair would help reduce physical strain and allow her to stay engaged and productive. This wish is especially meaningful for Christal due to her experience growing up in the foster care system, where she rarely had access to practical items that improved her daily comfort or supported her long-term goals. A pink office chair would not only provide physical support but also create a welcoming and motivating space that reflects her personality and reminds her that she deserves comfort, stability, and encouragement as she continues working toward independence.
