Brooklyn, 17 years old, MO | 5 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Despite her challenging upbringing and family life, Brooklynn demonstrates remarkable resilience and a clear focus on her goals, both short-term and long-term. When she entered foster care, she was significantly behind in school and needed to catch up on a considerable amount of credits. However, not only did Brooklynn graduate, but she did so an entire semester early. She is officially a December 2025 graduate through the MO Options program. Her achievement exemplifies her grit, determination, and commitment to creating a brighter future for herself.

Brooklyn graduated in December and will be moving into her new apartment in the coming weeks. In preparation for her next steps, she has expressed interest in getting a laptop to assist her with applying to colleges, researching programs, and more. Having a dependable laptop would greatly support her goals, and once she gets into college, it will serve as a valuable tool for her studies and completing assignments!
