Arianna R., 21 years old, NJ | 4 DAYS WAITING | NEEDED BY 02/20

Wish submitted by:

Arianna is bravely navigating a major transition after aging out of state care. Having faced significant challenges, she is committed to self-improvement, currently focusing on earning her GED. Her future became even brighter and more challenging with the arrival of her first child, a baby boy. Arianna's determination to build a stable, loving home for her son while working toward her educational goals is a testament to her profound resilience and hope for a secure future. She is building a new foundation, brick by dedicated brick, for her family.

Arianna is a young mother who recently moved into her own apartment after being approved for Section 8 housing and welcoming a new baby. This new home represents an important step toward stability and independence for her growing family. At this time, Arianna does not have a refrigerator in her apartment. Having a refrigerator is essential for safely storing food, baby formula, or breast milk, and perishable items needed for daily living. Access to proper food storage would allow her to plan meals, reduce food insecurity, and better care for her newborn’s nutritional needs. This wish would help Arianna establish a healthy and functional home environment, giving her peace of mind and supporting her ability to provide consistent care for her child as they begin this new chapter together.
