Nellie, 18 years old, CA | 7 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Nellie is a dedicated, responsible young mother working hard to complete high school while caring for her two-year-old son. Over the past several years, she has shown tremendous growth, maturity, and resilience as she has navigated the challenges of foster care. She has shown that she is caring, determined, and committed to creating a better future for her family. Despite the obstacles she has faced, she continues to make progress and take responsibility for her education and her role as a mother.

Nellie is requesting a laptop because hers broke during a transition between placements, leaving her without an essential tool to complete schoolwork and meet her educational goals. A reliable laptop would give her the technology she needs to complete assignments, stay on track toward graduation, and continue building a stable, successful future for herself and her son. Providing her with a laptop would be a meaningful investment in her continued success, supporting her as she finishes high school and works toward greater independence and long-term stability.
