Gina, 19 years old, NJ | NEEDED BY 10/16

Wish submitted by:

Gina is a remarkably resilient young woman who has faced an extraordinary amount of hardship at a young age. After the tragic loss of her mother and baby sister, as well as her father's incarceration, she has demonstrated immense strength and determination in moving forward. Gina is a dedicated worker who has recently settled into her own apartment, accompanied by her new puppy, Nova. With a passion for fashion and makeup, she enjoys treating herself to manicures and hairstyling.

Gina just graduated high school and jumped straight into nursing school, working hard to build financial independence while chasing her goal of caring for others. Between the demands of school and everything else on her plate, something like a Halloween costume just doesn't fit easily into her budget right now. What Gina would really love is the chance to pick out her own costume, something completely her choice, at a time when so much of her energy goes toward responsibilities and long-term goals. Granting this wish would let her take a small break from all of that, celebrate how far she's already come, and simply enjoy a bit of Halloween fun on her own terms.
