Wish submitted by:

Sanaa is a bright, hardworking, and resilient young woman currently studying psychology in college. She is fully committed to completing her education and pursuing a career in counseling psychology. Her goal is to give back and help others who have faced challenges similar to her own. For the past 10 years, she has been matched with her Big Sister through Big Brothers Big Sisters, and she greatly values the support she has received from this relationship as she has grown.

Sanaa is currently thriving in college, where she has developed a strong passion for her studies in biology and psychology. Balancing her academic pursuits with a part-time job, she also dedicates her free time to mentoring kids through a volunteer organization. On track to graduate on time, Sanaa aims to give back to her community by helping others who have faced challenges similar to her own. However, she is facing a significant hurdle—the cost of her textbooks. While scholarships have alleviated some of her financial burdens, the expense of the required textbooks is greater than what she can afford with her job. Access to these course materials is essential for her to succeed this school year and continue making progress toward her degree.
