Atlas, 12 years old, NJ

Wish submitted by:

Atlas is an honor roll student who loves soccer, animals, and dreams of becoming a veterinarian one day. After losing her mother, with her father absent, she and her siblings moved in with their loving grandmother, and she's held onto her spark through all of it.

Atlas is starting to feel more at home, though her journey is still ongoing. Going to therapy gives her a safe place to talk about her thoughts and feelings with caring people. After the heartbreaking loss of her mother, Atlas has faced many challenges, including a fire that caused her to lose many important belongings. She recently received a bunk bed, but she still needs a twin mattress for the top bunk where she will sleep. Having this mattress would help make her bedroom feel more comfortable and safe, and support her as she continues to rebuild her life.
