Audra, 23 years old, PA | 22 DAYS WAITING | NEEDED BY 08/28

Wish submitted by:

Audra is a survivor of domestic violence. After aging out of the foster care system, she became involved with a man who physically, mentally, and financially abused her. Fearing for the safety and well-being of her child, Audra found the courage to leave her boyfriend and currently resides with a friend. She is dealing with anxiety and PTSD but has begun her journey to healing. The transition has been challenging for her, but she is making progress. Audra has started therapy and is considering going back to school to pursue her long-held dream of becoming a nurse, a goal she had before becoming involved with her ex. Despite all the pain and trauma she has endured, Audra is determined to regain control of her life and build a better future for herself and her child.

Audra stepped up to become guardian for her younger brother when their mother struggled with addiction. He's just been invited to a farm birthday party with a friend from therapy, his first invitation like this, and he's never even left Philadelphia. Going together would give him a joyful, unforgettable first for both siblings.
