Natalie, 21 years old, CA

Wish submitted by:

At the age of 12, Natalie entered foster care, and after aging out, she found her passion in art. Now a dedicated student majoring in art, she dreams of painting murals that will enrich her community. Balancing the responsibilities of being a single mother while attending community college has not been easy, but her determination has paid off—she has recently been accepted into a four-year university. Through it all, she has managed to navigate her challenges while parenting solo.

Natalie is looking for help in finding a new pair of shoes that are suitable for job interviews as she prepares to move to a new city and search for employment. She is set to graduate with her Associate of Arts degree and is excited about this important transition into adulthood. Having the right professional attire will enable her to present herself confidently to potential employers and aid her success as she embarks on the next steps toward independence and career stability.
