Anahi, 25 years old, CA

Wish submitted by:

Anahi is returning to school after time away, carrying both lived foster experience and a clear sense of purpose with her. Coming back was not easy, but it reflects how serious she is about changing the direction of her life. She wants to become a surgeon, a goal she has held onto even during times when school did not feel possible. She shows up for herself even when it is hard, and she is taking this step with intention.

Anahi would greatly benefit from a gas gift card, as it would help relieve the stress she is currently facing regarding transportation. As a college student balancing her studies, work, and basic needs, she relies on her car but has been struggling to keep up with the rising cost of gas. Despite these challenges, she maintains a positive outlook and turns her daily commutes into small adventures, appreciating the scenery on her way to school. Having this support would allow her to attend classes and work consistently without the ongoing worry of how she will afford transportation. This is wish 2 of 2.
