Stormi, 16 years old, VA | 8 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Stormi spent some time in a group home and has made lots of progress over the years. She also spent several years helping her dad raise her siblings while their mom was in jail. She loves to express herself through art, including dance. Stormi is resilient, kind, and thoughtful.

Stormi is preparing for an emotional milestone: reuniting with her mother, who was recently released from prison. During her mother's incarceration, Stormi visited regularly, often returning home feeling overwhelmed by the weight of their separation. Despite this, she remained a pillar of strength, holding herself together for the sake of her younger siblings. Now, in celebration of her mother’s birthday, Stormi hopes to take her to one of their favorite breakfast spots—a small but significant step toward healing their bond and starting the journey of rebuilding their relationship.
