Wish submitted by:

Ashley lived in a group home, where she completed high school and went on to attend college, earning her degree in Psychology. Ashley has built an incredibly meaningful life since aging out of care. She has served in the military, is married, and is a devoted parent to her own children. She currently works in hospice care, supporting individuals and families through grief and end-of-life transitions. She earned her Master of Social Work in May 2022 and continues to pursue her passion for advocacy. Ashley is hardworking, dedicated, and deeply caring. She hopes to continue her professional growth by passing her clinical licensure exam and furthering her ability to advocate for children in foster care, giving back the same support she once received.

An iPad would be an efficient and economical gift for Ashley to get through her graduate studies. A lot of school books are cheaper in the electronic version rather than the textbook which are quite expensive.It would save a lot of money purchasing e-books which are compatible on the iPad. She would also love to have the iPad for leisure. Having children, she loves to spend any extra money she has on them and making sure they have their needs met before she makes any purchases for herself. Ashley is such a kind-hearted and loving person who had a difficult childhood and is making the best out of it by building up her family and helping those who are in foster care know they can be successful and do well in life despite their struggles.
