Marisa, 35 years old, OH

Wish submitted by:

Marisa is a devoted mother of three who has faced numerous challenges but remains determined to build a stable and loving future for her family. After experiencing periods of homelessness, her teens were placed in kinship care while she worked to regain stability in her life. Despite the obstacles she encountered, Marisa was excited to reunite her family under one roof. She recently achieved an incredible milestone by graduating from nursing school! Marisa finds joy in simple pleasures, such as listening to music, styling hair, applying makeup, and relaxing by watching her favorite television shows. Above all, she values spending time with her family. Whether visiting Kings Island, going to the local pool, or simply being together at home, those moments are the most meaningful to her. She continues to work hard every day to provide stability, love, and opportunity for her family.

Marisa recently completed nursing school and is preparing for the next exciting step in her career. As she studies for her state exam and works toward a full-time position in the medical field, she has been spending a lot of time walking and standing. Marisa would benefit from supportive shoes that provide comfort and ankle support as she transitions into long shifts and a more active daily routine. After working so hard to complete her education, having a reliable pair of shoes would help her feel prepared and confident as she begins her new career. This would allow Marisa to choose shoes that meet her needs while supporting her health, comfort, and future goals.
