Megan, 17 years old, MO | 4 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Megan has experienced a difficult foster care journey, moving from home to home and never having the opportunity to feel like she truly had a place to call her own. She is currently living in a group home and is preparing to start her senior year of high school. Despite the challenges and uncertainty she has faced, Megan has an incredibly positive outlook on life and continues to be one of the happiest and most optimistic people around her. She loves to read, draw, and experiment with makeup, using creativity as a way to express herself. Megan dreams of becoming a social worker so she can support and advocate for children who are experiencing the same struggles she has faced. Her resilience, compassion, and hope for the future are truly inspiring.

Megan is excited to begin her senior year and wishes for a new pair of shoes to help her start the school year feeling confident and prepared. After experiencing many changes and moving between homes, Megan has not always had the opportunity to have new things of her own. Having a new pair of shoes that she chose for herself would provide both comfort and a boost of confidence as she heads into this important milestone year. This wish would give Megan something special to call her own while helping her put her best foot forward for her senior year.
