Wish submitted by:

Stacey is an amazing young women. She entered into foster care as a run-away. Stacey had lived in West Virginia and thought running away from years of abuse and neglect due to her mother’s drug addiction could be solved by leaving the only home she knew. Things are now turning around for her. She is back at school and hopeful that a family member is going to give her a new life back in her home state of West Virginia. This may take some time. She is very patient and is working on her own self-care. She likes New Jersey but wants badly to return to West Virginia as she misses her friends. Stacey would like to be a veterinarian when she grows up and likes to spend her down time with animals. Stacey is a very kind and caring young women.

Stacey is working hard to get good grades and the work is really paying off. She just got her grades for this marking period and was very pleased. A tablet would help her out greatly with her homework and she could upload books to read when she is not busy with her studies.
