Jazzy, 13 years old, CO

Wish submitted by:

Jazzy is a determined young lady and the oldest of her siblings. She and her siblings have been in the care of her great-grandmother. Even when facing homelessness, Jazzy consistently showed strength, maturity, and an unwavering commitment to building a better future. In school, Jazzy works incredibly hard to maintain her scholarship. She understands the opportunity it provides and takes pride in protecting it by keeping her grades up and completing ongoing volunteer hours. Her dedication and sense of responsibility set a powerful example for those around her. At home and in her community, Jazzy is known for her big heart. She deeply cares for her grandmother, supports her siblings, and is a loyal, encouraging friend. Even while carrying many responsibilities, she continues to show kindness, leadership, and resilience every day.

As the oldest sibling, Jazzy often puts everyone else’s needs ahead of her own and rarely asks for anything in return. A special wish for Jazzy would be new bedding and sheets of her own. Having a comfortable, cozy space to rest would mean so much to a young girl who works tirelessly every day to keep her scholarship, volunteer, help care for her grandmother, and support her brothers and sisters. Something as simple as fresh bedding would give her a sense of comfort, stability, and a place that truly feels like hers.
