Foster Hearts Region 3

Malana is a thoughtful and caring girl who is currently in foster care. One of the things she misses most is her cat, who stayed behind when she moved homes, and she still talks about him often. School is really important to Malana—she enjoys learning and likes having a routine where she can focus and feel successful. When she has free time, she loves listening to music and spending time with friends, whether that’s hanging out in person or just chatting and staying connected. She is a resilient young person who is working hard and dreaming of a bright future.

Malana is asking for a tablet that will help her stay connected to the people who matter most to her. It would let her keep in touch with friends and family, no matter the distance, and give her a way to relax with her favorite shows after a long day. It would also help her keep up with school, so she can complete assignments on a device that is reliably hers.
