Madison, 21 years old, NJ | 16 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Madison is a young mother who started living in an independent living program after experiencing homelessness with her children. She is defined by her resilience and hard work, and she aims to create a better future for her family. Despite the challenges of raising children on her own, Madison is focused on finding stable housing and pursuing a career as an ultrasound technician. Her children inspire her to make choices that lead to a more secure life, and she faces each day with determination.

Madison is finally moving into a new apartment with her two daughters after completing time in our independent living program, a major step forward after facing homelessness while raising her girls entirely on her own. As they settle into a real home together, Madison is hoping to give her daughters' room a modular play couch, something soft and versatile they can rearrange, climb on, and turn into forts, reading nooks, or whatever their imaginations come up with. It would give her daughters a comfortable, playful space that's truly theirs, marking this new chapter with something fun as their family starts fresh.
