Winter Clothes for Iris who is in dire need of warm clothes

Posted Dec 6, 2018
Iris needs a sense of belongings. She is very humble and says she does not want anything for Christmas, even though we know she needs many new items. She deserves so much more. If given the opportunity to go shopping and pick out what she wants, it will be such a great thing.

Iris is 23 years old and lives in TX

Iris has 7 siblings who were all separated when they entered the foster system. They have not been able to communicate or see each other since that time. Iris has had a rough time healing from past traumas and tries hard every day to cope with life and being away from her biological family. She has persevered and is blossoming into a beautiful young woman. She recently turned 18 years old and is looking forward to a bright future. She has been deprived of so many things in her life and has a long road ahead.

Regina grants the wish for Iris! Thanks Regina.

"Dear Iris, My name is Regina Louise. I am so glad that I am the one who gets to fulfill your wish; I chose you. Thank you for your strength and courage to allow me to do so. I am honored by your ability to let people in, to ask for what you need. I, too, grew up in foster care; I know how hard it can be, how lonely it can feel. But you’re not alone. I get it, from my side of the conversation, at least, that no matter if I grew up on a similar journey your experience is your own. Yours, Regina"
