Paige, 13 years old, CA | NEEDED BY 08/21

Wish submitted by:

Paige was removed from her mother and father at the age of two and now lives with her aunt. As a middle school student, she is actively involved in dance and participates in Praise Dance at her church. She has also enjoyed cheerleading for five years, where her team reached the finals, sparking her desire to cheer again. Additionally, Paige has a passion for Theater Arts and is part of a gifted program at her school. She plans to attend college to improve herself and surpass her parents, inspired by her aunt, who has shown her a different path for raising children in the future.

Paige is getting ready for school and dance practice, but her current backpack is falling apart after lots of heavy wear. Being supported by her aunt on a tight budget, getting a replacement isn't easy. A sturdy, reliable new backpack will give Paige a secure place to carry all of her daily books, school supplies, and dance gear, helping her feel organized, prepared, and confident every time she steps into class.
