Wish submitted by:

Emily is the middle of three siblings and is getting ready to begin fourth grade. She has a calm, creative personality and enjoys spending time at home with her family. Some of her favorite activities include listening to music, watching her favorite TV shows, riding her bike around the neighborhood, and expressing her style through fun jewelry and accessories. Emily enjoys the simple things in life and looks forward to making new memories with her siblings and friends. Emily's family has overcome significant housing challenges, including a period of living in a hotel while her mother worked hard to secure stable housing. Through these experiences, Emily has shown resilience and continues to grow into a thoughtful, kind young girl. She is excited for the new school year and all the opportunities it will bring.

Emily is looking forward to the new school year and is hoping for a Ross Dress for Less gift card to pick out fresh back-to-school clothing essentials and everyday basics. Having a gift card allows her to select comfortable, properly fitting items that match her personal style and preferences. Starting the school year with necessary everyday items will boost her confidence and help her feel prepared, comfortable, and focused on her education.
