Wish submitted by:

Ivy is rebuilding her future after spending much of her childhood in foster care. After experiencing homelessness, she recently found stability through community and is now focused on creating a strong foundation for adulthood. She earned her GED and is pursuing college with plans to study Allied Health. Ivy is working to strengthen her professional skills, communication, and confidence while preparing for a healthcare career where she can help others. She knows firsthand how important stability and support can be, and she's determined to create a future that looks very different from her past. With safe housing now in place, Ivy is able to focus on school, employment, and building the life skills that will help her become financially independent and successful. She approaches every opportunity with determination and is ready to make the most of this new chapter.

Ivy is in college and starting to navigate the interview process. She wants to feel confident and presentable not only on important days but also on the ordinary days in between. Looking good before entering a room that makes her nervous can be incredibly helpful and boost her confidence. New makeup can give Ivy one less thing to worry about and allow her to focus on showing up as her best self. For Ivy, this reminds her that her career aspirations are supported.
