Tessa, 12 years old, VA | 1 DAY WAITING | NEEDED BY 03/20

Wish submitted by:

Tessa is an amazing little girl who is currently in foster care with her younger brother. Tessa has had much trauma in her short lifetime but has not allowed the trauma to take away her happy outlook on the world. She has some education delays but she works very hard in school. Tessa loves to sing and dance.

Tessa and her foster family will be traveling to Florida for spring break, and she is super excited about the trip. Tessa has asked for a new pair of Crocs for her vacation. She loves bold, bright colors, and when she saw the Gusher Crocs, she knew she had to have them. However, she felt reluctant to ask for the new Crocs because she was afraid of being told no. Tessa has made great strides in her foster home and is on the road to adoption. Purchasing the Crocs will help her understand that it’s okay to ask for something she wants.
