Naya, 24 years old, CA | 9 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Naya is a courageous and creative young woman who is working towards a more secure and affirming future. After experiencing involvement with the system and periods of homelessness, she is now taking bold steps to achieve stability, health, and purpose. As a transgender woman and aspiring cosmetologist, Naya dreams of creating beauty and safety for herself and others. She is currently focused on completing trade school while managing a chronic health condition and recovering from experiences of discrimination. Naya aims to rebuild not just her housing, but also trust, community, and self-confidence. She has finally found a place that recognizes her full identity and worth.

Naya would love a projector! Having a space where she can watch movies, create, and relax will support her emotional well-being. It will also provide her with a healthy way to unwind and recharge as she continues working toward her goals.
