Emily, 30 years old, CA

Wish submitted by:

Emily is a resilient single mother who navigated the foster care system as a youth and has since built a safe, stable, and loving home for herself and her four-year-old daughter. Professionally, she serves as a Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) at a specialized school for children with autism, where she brings compassion and care to her students every day. During summer breaks, Emily treasures spending quality time with her daughter—taking walks, catching movies, and creating lasting memories. Driven by determination, Emily plans to return to school to earn her Registered Nurse (RN) degree, continuing her commitment to healthcare while securing a bright, prosperous future for her family.

As a single mother and LVN, Emily works hard to provide a safe home for her daughter. However, taking a break from work during the school summer break creates a temporary gap in income, making essential purchases difficult. Her daughter's current car seat has seen years of daily use and needs to be replaced. Receiving a new car seat will ensure her child's safety on every ride, relieve a financial strain, and give Emily total peace of mind on the road.
