Foster Parent Association of WilkesKay 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 wishes for an new pair of sneakers to help her make it through the rest of the school year. These sneakers will give her a fresh clean look that she’s not ashamed of. Her current sneakers don’t look too clean and she is ashamed of them. This will give her a boost of self confidence.
Foster Parent Association of Wilkes requests this wish for Kay.

"Hi Kay, I hope you enjoy the new shoes. I agree it's important to have fresh kicks! My favorite athlete Michael Jordan once said, "It's not about the shoes, but its what you do in them". Anytime you feel bad, and your head may be down, just look at your shoes and remember to keep moving forward--one step at a time. "
