Charisma, 14 years old, FL | 14 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Charisma is a smart, strong-willed teen. Currently, she resides in a group home for at-risk youth. She is currently acclimating to foster care after losing her mother 3 years ago to cancer. She has experienced adversity and hardship and continues to remain resilient. She loves shoes and fashion and values her independence. In her free time, she enjoys doing makeup and hair and works a part-time job.

Charisma is changing placements and will soon move to a new foster home that can better support her health. The move is a big change, and she would like a phone to keep in touch with her old friends and meet new ones, since she will be allowed one at her new placement. Her favorite color is pink, so she is hoping for a pink one, too. A reliable way to stay in touch would make her move a little easier and help her feel connected during the transition.
