Wish submitted by:

Alina is caring and has a great sense of humor. She brightens the room with her smile and engaging personality. Alina enjoys laughing and connecting with others. Her dream is to pursue a career in cosmetology, as it allows her to follow her passion while continuing to socialize with people. However, Alina's life hasn't been easy. Currently, she is living in a second chance home, as she is in foster care. Despite her challenges, she continues to smile and bring joy to the lives of those she encounters.

Alina finds herself feeling sad when she is unable to connect with her friends and family. Alina has siblings and would love to stay in touch. A phone will allow her to communicate with current friends and family as well as make connections with new friends as her typical peers do. She will be so excited to find this phone under the tree this Christmas.
