Krishna, 19 years old, OR | 9 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Krishna grew up in foster homes, moving from placement to placement until she turned eighteen. Stability was something she rarely experienced, often packing her belongings into trash bags and unsure of where she would sleep next. In this constant cycle of change, she found solace in art and words. Drawing and journaling became her escape, allowing her to express feelings she couldn't always articulate. Through sketching and writing, she learned to process her experiences and make sense of the chaos around her. The pages of her notebooks became a haven filled with dreams, pain, and hope. Now that she’s aged out of the system, she carries those notebooks as reminders of her resilience. With aspirations to attend art school, she aims to share her story through her work and connect with others who felt lost yet continued to dream.

Krishna is asking for hair so she can style and switch up her look in a way that reflects her creativity and individuality. Being able to change her hairstyle gives her the freedom to explore different versions of herself and feel refreshed in how she presents to the world. Without access to the hair she needs, those options are limited, making it harder for her to express her personal style. This request isn’t just about appearance—it’s about having the ability to feel renewed, confident, and in control of how she shows up each day.
