Elli, 19 years old, CO

Wish submitted by:

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.

Elli is an active and studious young lady. Despite her past life struggles, she has come so far and is amazing in school and quite the athlete. She is always trying to find ways to decompress though. Her younger sister recently got a Nintendo Switch Lite and Elli cannot seem to stop playing with it, which of course her little sister isn't overly excited about. She would love to have her own Nintendo Switch Lite, as she finds it allows her to lose herself in mindless fun, and just to decompress.
