Laila, 16 years old, IN | 7 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Laila is a thoughtful and creative girl who finds comfort in music, books, and pieces of the past that tell a story. She loves spending time flipping through records, exploring old media, and getting lost in the pages of a good book. Since entering foster care, Laila has been learning how to adjust to many changes while still holding onto the quiet interests that make her feel safe and grounded. She has a deep appreciation for art and nostalgia, and her gentle personality shines through in the way she notices beauty in small, meaningful things.

Laila would love a vinyl record stand to safely store and organize her growing record collection. Music has become an important source of comfort and stability for her, especially during a difficult transition in her life. Having a special place to display and protect her records would help her feel proud of something she cares deeply about, while also making her space feel more personal and welcoming. A vinyl record stand would not only help keep her collection organized, but also give Laila a stronger sense of ownership and belonging as she continues to adjust to her new home.
