Calissa, 18 years old, MO | 1 DAY WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Calissa is a bright and kind young woman currently living with her grandparents through foster care. She had hoped to establish guardianship with them, but due to delays in the court process, she will likely turn 18 before this can be completed, which may also extend her time in foster care. She enjoys living with her grandparents, but she is often hesitant to ask for things because she worries about being a burden, even though that is not the case. Calissa is a sweet and caring person who tends to be shy and slow to open up to others. She recently got a job at Grant’s Farm and is working hard to save her money and build her independence.

Calissa loves capturing the fun moments she shares with her friends and would love an Instax Mini camera to make those memories last. While taking pictures on her phone is convenient, having instant photos she can hold, display, and decorate her room with would make those moments feel even more special. An Instax Mini camera would give Calissa a creative way to celebrate her friendships, capture meaningful experiences, and fill her space with reminders of the people and memories she cherishes.
