Monique D, 18 years old, AZ | 33 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Monique is a strong and resilient young woman who has overcome many challenges in her life. She entered foster care during her teenage years and later lived under the guardianship of her great-aunt to gain stability. Throughout everything, she has stayed close with her family, especially her dad and brothers, who remain an important part of her support system. She currently lives with her biological mother, and they support each other while working hard to manage basic needs. Monique helps with rent when she can and also contributes to expenses like gas and food. Her mom recently started a new job, and they are both working together to build stability. Monique is a quick learner with strong communication skills and a great ability to adapt to difficult situations. She enjoys music, playing basketball, and has a creative interest in cars, especially customizing them. Most of all, she is kind, determined, and focused on building a better future for herself.

Monique is currently pregnant and would greatly benefit from a gift card to help her purchase essential items for her baby, as well as products to support her health and comfort during this important time. With a gift card, she can select the items she needs most, including baby essentials and personal care products. This support would ease some of the financial stress of preparing for her baby’s arrival, allowing her to focus on her well-being and embrace this exciting new chapter in her life.
