A trip to Target for Destiny who is stepping fully into independence for the first time and needs the essentials

Destiny, 21 years old, NJ | 3 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

NJ DCFS - Ocean County

Having experienced time in foster care, Destiny loves working with children and wants to obtain a degree in education. She currently works with young children at a daycare center. Not only is she smart, she is independent, strong and determined. Destiny is also a loving big sister.

Destiny has just reached the age of majority and is preparing to transition out of foster care entirely, a milestone that comes with both excitement and real uncertainty. A shopping spree at Target would be a meaningful way to support her through this moment, especially as some of her financial support begins to end and covering the basics- clothing, toiletries, makeup, and everyday essentials- becomes harder to manage on her own. This wish would give Destiny room to choose things that help her feel good about herself right as she's stepping fully into independence, a reminder that even as her support system shifts, she's not facing this next chapter alone.
