Nelle, 14 years old, OH

Wish submitted by:

Nelle is bright, caring, and creative. She entered foster care due to family challenges with substance abuse and has faced real trauma at a young age. She is in therapy and connected to a mentorship program and is growing in ways her foster team has noticed and celebrated.

Nelle is a vibrant, funny, energetic young woman whose resilience and determination continue to shine. Since entering foster care, she has built meaningful relationships with supportive adults and mentors who have helped her grow in confidence, independence, and self-awareness. Nelle takes pride in her academic accomplishments and loves expressing her creativity through cheerleading, dance, and modeling. She has also joined her school’s volleyball team, where she is excelling and showing off her impressive serve! As Nelle continues to grow into a confident, independent young woman, an Apple Watch would help her stay organized while balancing school, practices, and time with friends. It would also help her stay connected with her foster family and support team. This gift would celebrate all she has accomplished and remind her that she deserves wonderful things in life.
