Maddy, 24 years old, OH

Wish submitted by:

Maddy is a determined young mother of two energetic and loving children. Despite the challenges she has faced in her life, she continues to work hard to create a stable and positive future for her family. Maddy was placed in care shortly after birth and was adopted by her foster parents. Growing up, she often struggled with questions about her identity and is still learning more about her birth family and heritage. These experiences have shaped her into a thoughtful and creative person who uses writing as a way to process her life experiences. She has written and self-published several books of poetry on Amazon that reflect on her childhood and personal journey. Maddy is currently enrolled in college and is working on writing her first romance novel. She recently began working from home as a call representative while continuing to pursue her education and care for her children. Although Maddy experiences social anxiety, she continues to push herself forward and pursue her goals. Writing, learning, and caring for her children give her purpose and motivation as she builds a better future for her family.

Maddy would like to take her children to the YMCA. The children can't swim yet, so she is looking into swimming lessons. Maddy would like a life jacket to help keep her baby girl safe. This jacket is designed for infants under 30 pounds, and Maddy has had a hard time finding one for an infant.
