Arianda, 18 years old

Wish submitted by:

Arianda is from South America. She is a sweet, soft spoken young girl who is a survivor!!! She has a history of abandonment and abuse. Arianda has been in placement since October of 2018 and has no family in this Country. She’s learning English quickly and is adapting to living in the United States. She likes to read and likes talking to her friends. Currently she is still processing everything that has happened to her at such a tender age. Although Arianda has endured a lot of pain and trauma in her life, she is very optimistic, and wants to learn and excel in school. She strives for a new beginning and refuses to let her past define her.

Arianda needs a laptop to do her school work. She came to the United States only a year ago and is still learning the English language. Her resource parent does not have a computer in the home. Arianda wants to learn, to do well in school and wants to make sure all her assignments are done. A laptop will help her keep on top of all her school work which is mostly online. Having a computer will give her the flexibility to do her school work at home since her schedule is very busy due to having to attend trauma base therapy.
