Wish submitted by:

Samantha has been living in an out-of-home placement and has demonstrated remarkable resilience as she navigates many significant changes in her life. Despite these challenges, she has adjusted well to her new school and is doing a wonderful job building new routines and connections. Samantha is a bright, kind-hearted, and cheerful child who enjoys making new friends and bringing positivity to those around her. One of her greatest hopes is to reconnect with family and friends she cares about deeply and misses. Her strength, perseverance, and unwavering hope continue to shine through each day as she embraces new opportunities and looks ahead.

For her birthday, Samantha would love a Summer Fridays Vanilla Sheer Lip Balm. This gentle, moisturizing balm has become a popular self-care staple, made with nourishing shea butter and murumuru seed butter to soothe and condition dry lips, all with a subtle vanilla flavor and sheer shine. Receiving something like this would bring a genuine smile to Samantha's face, giving her a small, age-appropriate way to enjoy self-care and feel a little extra confident.
