Kay, 21 years old

Wish submitted by:

Kay is an outgoing young lady whose life changed dramatically when she came into care during COVID-19. Despite the challenges, she has shown remarkable resilience and has worked hard to adjust to her new circumstances. A dedicated student, she maintains good grades while also enjoying her favorite sports, including swimming, volleyball, and track. Kay has a vibrant personality, reflected in her favorite color, teal, and her passion for drawing. Recently, she got a new kitten, which has become a source of comfort for her, especially since she wasn’t allowed to have pets before entering foster care. Caring for her appearance and practicing good hygiene are important to Kay, as she values self-expression and confidence. Additionally, she loves helping others; interacting with people makes her feel like she truly belongs. Through her kindness and determination, Kay is not only navigating her new life but also thriving in it.

Kay feels relieved to finally be near the end of the school year. It’s been a year packed full of mask wearing, remote learning, Covid shutdowns, and learning adjustments. This bubble gum box will help her celebrate and acknowledge her accomplishments. She should be so proud of herself!
