Aria, 26 years old, NJ

Wish submitted by:

Aria was in foster care for over a decade and experienced frequent moves throughout her childhood. She aged out of the system at 18 without consistent support or a safety net to help her transition into adulthood. Despite these challenges, she has built a life of her own and is now a mother to three young children.

Aria is really excited to kick off her medical assistant program and is wholeheartedly committed to a career in healthcare. To stay on top of her studies, she needs access to a laptop or iPad for her assignments and course materials. Unfortunately, after recently finding a place for her family to live, she’s strapped for cash and can’t afford to buy an iPad. Getting her this device would make a world of difference, allowing her to complete her coursework and take a significant step toward a brighter future for both herself and her family.
