Sandy, 14 years old, CA | NEEDED BY 05/22

Wish submitted by:

Sandy is a kind and resilient young girl who has been working hard to build her confidence and improve her social skills. Over the past year, she has faced many challenges while adjusting to foster care, but with the support of her therapist, social worker, caregivers, and school staff, she has made tremendous progress both emotionally and academically. Although naturally shy, Sandy has become more open in social settings, has started forming positive friendships, and is ending the school year with improved grades and attendance. She enjoys drawing, arts and crafts, and journaling as creative outlets to express herself. Sandy is thoughtful, respectful, and determined, and those around her are proud of the growth and strength she continues to show each day.

Sandy would love a halo hair extension for her birthday so she can feel more confident and comfortable around her peers. She has thin hair, which sometimes makes her feel self conscious, and having fuller hair would help boost her self esteem and allow her to express herself through different hairstyles. She is specifically interested in halo extensions because they are easy to wear, comfortable, and simple to style since they are a one piece extension. This gift would help Sandy feel beautiful, confident, and more secure in her appearance.
