Charlotte, 20 years old, MO

Wish submitted by:

Charlotte has spent most of her life in foster care. She graduated high school a semester early and is now focused on furthering her education. Two of Charlotte's passions are running in cross-country meets and welding, which she uses as outlets to manage her anxiety and cope with past traumas. Charlotte is determined to achieve her future dreams. At the age of 14, she realized that her aspiration to create art pieces from metal would eventually become her career. She has many talents and is passionate about art, particularly in metalworking. Charlotte often gifts her creations to various places in her town, and her artwork is displayed at local venues, including the courthouse and city hall.

Charlotte is learning how to cook and has recently discovered a love for baking. She is still building her skills, but she has found she does well with bread and cakes. She would like to improve even more, especially with decorating, so she can feel more confident in the kitchen. She enjoys watching YouTube videos to learn how others bake and is excited to keep practicing and improving her skills.
