Sanaa, 20 years old, CA

Wish submitted by:

Sanaa is a hard-working person who continues to strive to accomplish her goals and to prepare for adulthood. She entered into foster care at 5 years old and was placed with extended family until she was left without a choice to come back into foster care when her caregiver was no longer willing to support her when she turned 18 years old. Despite her trauma at an early age, Sanaa managed to graduate high school and is currently working full-time. She hopes to gain financial stability as she prepares for her adulthood.

Sanaa is working hard toward being independent and financially stable. She works full-time at a grocery store and is happy with her job and pay. Getting to work can be difficult sometimes because she relies on the bus. Early morning shifts are especially hard, and she often has to ask friends or family for rides to make it on time. Having access to rideshare as a backup would make things much easier for Sanaa. It would help reduce stress, ensure she can get to work on time, and give her more confidence in keeping up with her job schedule. This is wish 1 of 2.
