Crystal, 14 years old, NJ

Wish submitted by:

Crystal is truly one of a kind. As an awesome big sister with a deep love for animals, she aspires to become a veterinarian. In 2024, her life changed dramatically when she and her dad narrowly escaped a devastating fire that claimed two loved ones. Though they suffered minor burns, Crystal faced sleepless nights and PTSD, having lost many personal belongings and spent weeks without a stable home. She later reunited with her mom, who has had her own medical issues, including brain surgery, and has limited income. Together, they care for Crystal’s younger half-sibling and their cherished dog. Despite the challenges, Crystal finds joy in playing with her dog, going to the movies, and making jewelry. Her favorite color is blue, and she has a special fondness for Hello Kitty. Through it all, Crystal’s resilience and spirit shine brightly, reflecting her strength and compassion.

Crystal is an amazing girl who loves expressing herself through her style. She is working on putting together a summer wardrobe that is cute, affordable, and comfortable so she can feel confident and happy in what she wears. She recently found a top that she really loves and would like to have it in a few different colors. She would be so happy and thankful if someone were able to get it for her. Having these tops would really brighten her day and help her feel special and confident.
