Saint J, 10 years old, NJ | 1 DAY WAITING | NEEDED BY 07/31

Wish submitted by:

Saint is a remarkable young lady with a love for reading, dinosaurs, and science. As an honor roll student, she is passionate about learning and enjoys cooking, especially baking, inspired by her grandmother, the neighborhood "cake lady." Saint's journey has been challenging; after losing her mother, she and her siblings were taken in by their maternal grandmother to avoid foster care. Their father has been absent since they were toddlers. Following a devastating fire that destroyed their home and belongings, Saint and her siblings became homeless again, relying on their grandmother for support. To cope with her feelings of sadness and isolation, Saint has started therapy and is learning to embrace her childhood while cultivating positive thoughts.

Saint is really excited about summer break. She looks forward to spending time with her friends and family. One of her wishes is to go on an outing to Funplex with a friend she met in therapy. This outing would give her the opportunity to connect with her friend, have fun, and create happy memories together.
