She is an incredibly resilient young woman who is working hard to build her life with limited local family support.

Lara is an incredible young woman who is working hard to build a life for herself here in the US after arriving as an unaccompanied minor. This year, for her birthday, she hopes to receive some new clothing to add to her wardrobe. Being very health-conscious, she prefers to avoid plastic and polyester in her clothes. She is especially interested in getting a few shirts from Cotton On.
