Carmen, 6 years old, CA | NEEDED BY 03/27

Wish submitted by:

Carmen was placed into foster care along with four siblings. Before entering care, her family experienced a sudden eviction, leaving them unable to bring any of their belongings with them. She has endured significant trauma and was separated from three of her siblings, though she is currently placed with one sibling in a nurturing foster home. Despite these challenges, Carmen’s caregiver describes her as a sweet, caring child who continues to show kindness and resilience. She enjoys playing with age-appropriate toys and finding comfort in simple, joyful activities.

Carmen enjoys creative, hands-on activities, especially ones she can share with others. She has expressed how much she loves playing with slime alongside her siblings, as it brings her joy, laughter, and a sense of connection. This wish for a slime kit would provide Carmen with a fun and engaging way to express herself while creating special moments with her siblings. Activities like this not only encourage creativity but also help strengthen bonds and provide comfort through play.
