A pair of winter boots for Emily who will be traveling to get to clinicals as a nursing student

Posted Dec 7, 2017
Emily is managing a very tight budget. As a single mom and full time working nursing student, her first priority is her young daughter. She rarely purchases anything for herself. She realizes she needs a pair of winter boots to keep dry, warm and safe when out and about this winter.

Emily is 36 years old and lives in PA

Emily is a single mom juggling a tight budget, a job, and a full-time class schedule towards her nursing degree. She is focused and determined never to be homeless again and works hard to make a better life for her and her daughter

Chantelle grants the wish for Emily! Thanks Chantelle.

"Good luck, Emily! I’m proud of you and all that you are doing for yourself & your daughter. I don’t need to tell you how difficult nursing school is, but you are amazing for pursuing your dream while raising your daughter on your own. You are such a strong, shining example for her; one day, all of your late night study sessions, clinical work will pay off and your daughter will have learned that dreams are achievable if one works hard and believes in herself. I believe in you!! You’ve got this!"

" Dear One Simple Wish: I wanted to write this letter to thank you for the $50 Walmart gift card that was given to me for winter boots! I was able to buy a warm pair of black boots for the cold weather and snow. I cannot thank you enough for this gift. I really needed boots, and because of you, now I have a pair that fit great. Walmart has some really nice boots that are insulated and warm! Thank you so much for all you have helped me with. I am so thankful for you. Happy New Year! Love, Emily "
