HOLIDAY WISH

A New Keyboard for Elli to play her feelings away

Posted Dec 9, 2021
Elli is an artist at heart and enjoy participating in anything that uses her creative brain. She is hoping to be a gaming designer someday but her other true passion is music. She has been in choir and has played guitar as well as the piano. She loves the sound of the piano but cant really afford to have a actual one nor does her family home have room for one. For Christmas she would love the next best thing which is a keyboard. She could keep it in her room and play whenever she wants, and especially at those times when she needs to get out of her own mind, she would love to make up her own songs and play in a "band" with her siblings and their music toys.

Elli is 16 years old and lives in CO

Elli entered the foster care system after enduring years of abuse and neglect by her biological family. She is finally thankful to feel at peace and safe where she is in her foster home. She has overcome so much in her life and has excelled in school all through the trauma she faced. Elli has worked hard to be accepted into a prestigious high school program where she will be able to earn her associates degree as she completes high school. It is a very rigorous program that gets high school students started on their college career and they can transfer their credits to many universities worldwide. She hopes to one day be a gaming designer and influence kids that are just like her and help others stay connected.
