Natalia, 16 years old, NJ

Wish submitted by:

Natalia is a teenage mother who works hard at school. She studies diligently and maintains good attendance. Despite her efforts, Natalia often feels alone on this journey. Her main priorities are her education and caring for her infant daughter. She lives with her grandparents, as her parents are in another country. Natalia stands out because she enjoys taking walks in the park to unwind when things become overwhelming.

Natalia wishes for a pair of black Crocs. Her sneakers are worn out, and she feels it's time for something new. She hopes to get a new pair this spring, as she hasn't treated herself to anything new in a long time.
