Ma'nyla, 15 years old, NJ

Wish submitted by:

Ma'nyla is the oldest girl of five children in a single-parent household and often helps care for her younger siblings with grace. With a limited family income, she has learned to be responsible, patient, and resourceful. Despite experiencing separation from her family and recently being reunified with her family in a supportive housing program, she stays positive and continues to focus on her goals in and out of the classroom. She enjoys listening to music in her free time, which helps her relax. Her strength and dedication to her family, siblings, and friends make her truly special.

Ma'nyla is asking for a pair of AirPods so she can listen to music and have a way to unwind. As the oldest girl of five in a single-parent home, she carries a lot of responsibility and finds it challenging to get time for herself. Music gives her a chance to relax, clear her mind, and recharge after busy days helping her family. Having her own pair of AirPods would allow her to enjoy those moments more fully, whether she’s listening to music, focusing on schoolwork, or taking a quiet break. This gift would be a meaningful way to support her well-being and give her something she can truly call her own.
