LaciRay, 18 years old, CA | 43 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

LaciRay has experienced the challenges of growing up in foster care, navigating uncertainty, change, and adversity at a young age. Now a college student, she continues to balance her education while overcoming these obstacles with strength and resilience. She has an emotional support animal, Drako, that she cares for and enjoys spending time with, and in her free time, she loves hanging out with friends and learning how to cook. LaciRay is excited to develop life skills and learn how to be independent. Rather than allowing her circumstances to define her, she remains positive, focused, and determined to create a better future for herself. She consistently demonstrates perseverance, growth, and a strong sense of purpose as she works toward her goals and continues to overcome the barriers she has faced.

LaciRay recently welcomed an emotional support animal into her home and is committed to being a responsible pet owner while maintaining a clean and comfortable living environment. A carpet cleaner would provide her with an important tool to regularly clean and maintain her carpets as she adjusts to having a pet in the home. Having a carpet cleaner would help LaciRay address pet-related accidents, odors, dirt, and stains while preventing long-term damage to the flooring. It would also allow her to maintain a fresh and sanitary space for herself and her cat and support her in meeting housing expectations.
