Lottie, 21 years old, CA | 1 DAY WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Lottie has been couch-surfing with friends, using her time to turn an empty apartment into a space that feels like her own. With a passion for art, she’s filled it with her paintings and has gathered the essentials like canvas, acrylics, and brushes. After earning her GED, she’s now pursuing an Associate’s degree at a local community college, showing her commitment by specifically requesting a scientific calculator. Supported by foster care along the way, she’s building her future one class and one piece of furniture at a time.

Lottie has recently settled into her first apartment, eagerly furnishing it piece by piece and adorning the walls with her own artwork. However, she’s discovered that her unit tends to hold heat, making it tough to sleep or concentrate on her community college coursework without a fan. A simple fan would transform her living space, making it comfortable during the warm months and providing her with the restful environment she needs to stay focused on her studies. With this little addition, she can continue to show up for class and work toward the independent life she dreams of.
