Corina, 23 years old, OR | 6 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Corina entered foster care at just ten years old, carrying more weight on her small shoulders than any child should. She experienced two unsuccessful adoptions that deepened her questions about trust and love, but never lost faith in the possibility of healing. Now a young adult who has aged out of the system, Corina dreams of becoming a therapist and public speaker to help others confront their trauma with courage and learn to love freely. Outside of her aspirations, she brings people together through comfort, warmth, and good food, hosting dinners that fill the room with laughter and connection. Sharing meals creates a sense of community for Corina, allowing her to offer others the feeling of home that she longed for during her childhood. In those moments with loved ones, she feels a quiet kind of healing unfold. Every dish she prepares and every conversation at her table contribute to her journey of rewriting her story and empowering others to do the same.

Corina wants a blue skirt to add to her wardrobe, something that feels new, can be worn for various occasions, and is easy to style. She's looking for a piece that can be dressed up for going out or kept casual for a relaxed day. This blue skirt isn’t just any item; it’s about helping her show off her style while feeling confident and comfortable in her clothes.
