Wish submitted by:

Haley is a bright and caring young girl who is currently in foster care and deeply values her family and close friendships. She enjoys school and takes pride in learning, especially as she works toward her dream of becoming a welder by taking a welding class. Haley prefers a small, close-knit circle of friends and enjoys watching shows and movies, particularly documentaries. Her curiosity, determination, and clear goals make her a wonderful young person with an exciting future ahead.

Hayley would love to celebrate her birthday with a special dinner at a restaurant she enjoys. She would be excited to choose her favorite meal, enjoy a special dessert, and spend meaningful time talking, laughing, and making memories with the people who care about her. As a young person in foster care, having a special celebration can provide Hayley with a sense of normalcy, connection, and belonging. This experience would remind her that she is valued, cared for, and deserving of being celebrated, while giving her a happy birthday memory to treasure.
