Kiley, 18 years old, NJ | NEEDED BY 05/15

Wish submitted by:

Kiley is a remarkable young woman who has earned a college scholarship to play flag football. She is warm and kind, always involved in community service, and truly loves the game. Kiley has a big heart, especially when it comes to helping wild animals. Her mother, who uses a wheelchair after a leg amputation, faces health challenges that make it hard for her to spend quality time with Kiley. Despite financial difficulties, Kiley's mom does her best to support Kiley and her younger sibling. Kiley has also faced tough times, including abuse from her father, who is no longer in their lives for safety reasons. She struggles with dyslexia, PTSD, and anxiety, but she actively works on her mental health through therapy and group sessions. Kiley channels her energy into football and other activities, which help her feel less isolated and combat feelings of sadness. Her story is one of resilience and determination, showing how hope and perseverance can shine through even the toughest times.

Kiley is a strong and inspiring person. As Memorial Day gets closer, she can't wait for a cookout with her friends. She's also trying to put together a nice summer wardrobe for the warm weather. However, because she's focused on getting good grades, she doesn't have many summer clothes. A trendy pair of Alo shorts would be a great addition to her wardrobe, helping her feel confident and ready for the cookout. It would not only boost her style but also take away her worries about having enough outfits, allowing her to shine both in school and with her friends.
