Mila, 23 years old, NJ |

Wish submitted by:

Mila and her brother were raised by their grandmother until Mila turned 16, when their grandmother's dementia led to heartbreaking separations. Mila and her brother were placed in group homes. Growing up quickly, Mila faced a tough childhood marked by her mother’s addiction and abuse, leading to their removal from home. Now, despite having only a third-grade education and never finishing high school, Mila is determined to earn her GED and pursue a nursing career for stability. In her spare time, she enjoys reading, walking in parks, making jewelry, writing songs, photography, and singing. With support, she dreams of becoming an actress or model.

Mila loves fashion, and this year she really wants a stylish Dr. Martens handbag for her birthday. She’s planning to celebrate with her younger brother, who lives in a group home, her best friend, and her boyfriend. Mila and her boyfriend met in the group home and have formed a strong bond after going through similar experiences. The handbag would not only make her wardrobe pop but also symbolize the special moments they share. Mila truly deserves a gift that matches her unique style and passion. Getting this handbag would definitely make her birthday even more exciting.
