Saint J, 10 years old, NJ

Wish submitted by:

Saint is a remarkable young lady with a love for reading, dinosaurs, and science. As an honor roll student, she is passionate about learning and enjoys cooking, especially baking, inspired by her grandmother, the neighborhood "cake lady." Saint's journey has been challenging; after losing her mother, she and her siblings were taken in by their maternal grandmother to avoid foster care. Their father has been absent since they were toddlers. Following a devastating fire that destroyed their home and belongings, Saint and her siblings became homeless again, relying on their grandmother for support. To cope with her feelings of sadness and isolation, Saint has started therapy and is learning to embrace her childhood while cultivating positive thoughts.

Saint is currently facing significant challenges after a house fire that has left her and her siblings without their belongings. One small item that could greatly help her during this difficult time is deodorant. This personal care product would assist her in maintaining her hygiene and a sense of normalcy as she navigates this tough period. Such a simple gesture can have a meaningful impact on her well-being.
