Vanessa, 16 years old, CA | NEEDED BY 03/27

Wish submitted by:

Vanessa is a gentle, timid young girl in foster care who finds comfort and joy in watching movies especially the Bring It On series, where the upbeat dances and team spirit always make her smile. She is working hard to improve her grades and takes pride in the progress she’s making at school. With the support of her therapist, Vanessa is also learning to build confidence and strengthen her social skills, taking small but meaningful steps toward feeling more comfortable around others. Vanessa is a bright, thoughtful child with a big heart and so much potential waiting to shine.

There is no better feeling than being celebrated on your birthday! This wish will provide Vanessa with an extra surprise to open on their special day. Although their celebrations may look different this year, it will remind them that they are valued and remembered on this important occasion!
