Bella, 17 years old, PA | 5 DAYS WAITING | NEEDED BY 05/22

Wish submitted by:

Bella is an amazing young woman who has faced a lot of difficulties after becoming pregnant while still in high school. But she didn't let her situation hold her back. With many late nights of studying, she is set to graduate this year with a good GPA, showing just how strong and dedicated she is. She hasn’t had much support from her family since her mother struggled with homelessness and addiction, leaving Bella to rely on herself. Before she got pregnant, she lived in a group home, but she bravely decided to move in with her child's father. Unfortunately, he kicked her out, and now Bella is living in a shelter meant for mothers and their kids. Taking care of her newborn and dealing with everything has been really hard, but Bella is determined to rise above her past. She’s part of a therapy group for young women who have gone through tough times, where she finds support and connection with others who understand her struggles. In her spare time, Bella loves to read, do arts and crafts, and spend time with her close friends. Her positivity shines through, and her story is an inspiring reminder of resilience and hope even in tough times.

Bella wishes to have a stylish clutch handbag with a strap that will totally match her prom shoes. The bag will help her feel more confident and elegant as she gets ready for this big night. It’s a little touch that will make her feel put-together and ready to enjoy prom. Having something special to carry around will not only complete her outfit but also remind her that she's got support and totally deserves to shine on this special occasion.
