Wish submitted by:

Sia is an incredible individual who, along with her sister, was accepted into a home with the hope of being adopted and living together. Unfortunately, the foster parents decided to keep and adopt her younger sibling, leaving Sia feeling abandoned. Despite this, both sisters remain close and supportive of each other. Sia has been battling depression and feelings of isolation, even though she is known as one of the sweetest girls you could meet. She finds solace in singing, listening to music, playing sports, and spending time with animals. Sia also has a talent for drawing. During this challenging time in her life, Sia needs love and support as she copes with emotional struggles.

Sia is an amazing young woman about to graduate high school despite facing tough challenges. She's been living in a foster home and has had to cope with being separated from her sister, which has caused her a lot of sadness and sleepless nights. Fortunately, with the support of group therapy and caring friends, she’s on the verge of finishing school. Her school is planning a senior trip to Hershey Park, which is a big deal for her. However, she needs some help covering important costs like food, a locker, and souvenirs so she can enjoy the trip without worrying about money. Living in foster care makes it hard for her to get the help she needs, but Sia keeps trying to stay positive and find joy in her life. This will give Sia the chance to celebrate this milestone and create special memories.
