Leeyah, 12 years old, NJ | 3 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Leeyah returned home from foster care, and she is anxious to start over with her family. She enjoys listening to music, exploring cosmetology, and learning how to socialize with her peers. Leeyah loves being on TikTok and other social platforms to have fun. As she embarks on this new journey in a different environment and home, she is learning to adjust to the sudden changes in her life.

Leeyah is settling well into her new placement, and one thing that would mean a great deal to her right now is having clothing that actually fits and feels like her own. A Burlington gift card would give her that chance, letting her pick out pieces she genuinely likes rather than settling for whatever's available. She's worked hard to hold onto her confidence and sense of self through a lot of change, and having a real say in something this personal would matter, especially at a time when so much else has been decided for her. Choosing clothes that feel like hers would support the confidence she's already built and give her one more reason to keep moving forward with excitement.
