About Sandra

Sandra is 15 years old and lives in CA

Sandra recently entered the foster care system along with her six siblings because their mother was unable to care for them. Life has dealt her a tough hand; she has experienced significant trauma from neglect and abuse. As a result, Sandra struggles with her mental health and has faced thoughts of suicide, grappling with the weight of her experiences. Despite these challenges, she is truly dedicated to her recovery and is actively seeking hope and healing. What shines through most is her ability to smile and laugh with her siblings, whom she loves deeply. Their bond brings her joy and strength. Even with everything she’s been through, Sandra has remained an outstanding student. She dreams of becoming a doctor or a lawyer, motivated to create a better future for herself and her family. Her resilience is inspiring, and she continues to push forward, proving that hope can flourish even in the darkest of times.
