Daisy, 18 years old, CA | 1 DAY WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Daisy has been in foster care since she was six years old. While in care, she lost her mother to cancer. Despite everything she has been through, Daisy is incredibly strong—she survived a tragic accident that nearly took her life. She also showed great courage by testifying against the person responsible, helping bring justice in her case. Daisy is currently living in a Transitional Housing Program (THP) and working toward earning her high school diploma. She is in therapy and focused on building a stable, independent future. Her experiences have shaped her into a resilient and determined young woman with a strong outlook on life. Daisy dreams of becoming a nurse, inspired by the care she received during her recovery. She also enjoys doing lashes and nails, using it as a creative outlet and a way to help others feel confident. She is kind, respectful, and optimistic, even after facing many challenges. Right now, Daisy is learning important life skills like cooking and is actively looking for a job. She is also interested in taking self-defense classes to help her feel more confident and safe as she continues building her independence.

An electric bike would be life-changing for Daisy. Right now, getting to job opportunities, grocery stores, and important appointments is a constant challenge. With reliable transportation, she wouldn’t have to choose between meeting her basic needs and building her future—she could do both. An e-bike would give Daisy the freedom to get around her community with confidence. It would make it easier for her to look for work, run everyday errands like grocery shopping, and make it to important appointments that support her well-being. Beyond the practical benefits, this is about independence and dignity. Having her own way to get around would help Daisy feel less isolated and more in control of her life. It would also give her a healthy outlet—something as simple as riding can help reduce stress and keep her active. Daisy is doing everything she can to build a stable and hopeful future. She continues to show strength, determination, and a positive attitude, even when things haven’t been easy.
