Lenotra, 21 years old, CA | 1 DAY WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Lenotra is a former foster youth whose journey through foster care was filled with challenges, uncertainty, and constant change. While not every foster home provided the stability she hoped for, she chose to keep moving forward, making the best of every situation. Those experiences shaped her into the resilient, compassionate, and determined young woman she is today. Lenotra enjoys cooking, reading, hiking, taking walks, and learning about animals and astronomy. She dreams of becoming a psychologist so she can support others who have experienced adversity and help them find hope and healing. No matter what obstacles life places in her path, Lenotra continues to persevere with optimism and a genuine desire to care for those around her. Today, Lenotra is preparing for one of the most meaningful chapters of her life—becoming a first-time mom to her baby girl. Her daughter has given her a renewed sense of purpose and motivation to build a stable, loving future. She is determined to continue her education, break generational cycles, and create a home where her daughter will always feel safe, supported, and deeply loved. Through every challenge, Lenotra remains committed to building the bright future she has always envisioned for herself and her growing family.

Lenotra is wishing for baby bottles because they are an everyday essential for caring for a newborn. Having bottles would help ensure her baby girl is well-fed and cared for while giving Lenotra one less thing to worry about as she prepares for motherhood.
