Precious, 14 years old, CA | 2 DAYS WAITING | NEEDED BY 10/16

Wish submitted by:

Precious has recently returned home to her mother's care after spending a long time in unstable foster placements. She has a history of being bullied, which has resulted in her changing schools multiple times. Precious is kind, sweet, and timid, but she wants to express herself boldly through fashion. She is anxious about starting high school this year and is working on building supportive friendships.

Precious is in a new high school this year, and she is feeling anxious. After being bullied by classmates in the past, she has worked hard to rebuild her confidence, and she is determined to start fresh. Right now, the only shoes she owns are one old, worn-out pair of Crocs. A pair of Nike Dunks would give her a stylish, comfortable shoe that lets her express her personality and feel like she fits in as she walks the halls. It is a small change that can make a big difference to a girl who has worked so hard to feel good about herself.
