Nintendo Switch for Millie to explore the world of video games for her birthday

Posted Oct 30, 2024
Millie has been dreaming about owning a Nintendo Switch for her birthday! After spending two years in foster care, she feels a mix of excitement and a little nervousness about asking for something so expensive. Although she’s never had her own pricey items or a gaming system, she’s had a blast playing on her friends' consoles. Playing Mario Kart with them has filled her with joy and a sense of freedom after a long school day, and she loves it. For Millie, gaming isn’t just about the games; it’s about the connections she makes with her friends during those fun moments of laughter and excitement. Asking for the Nintendo Switch means so much more than just a gaming device—it’s about the happiness and camaraderie she wishes she could experience every day!

Millie is 12 years old and lives in NE

Millie is an incredible, talented, and bright young lady who loves playing video games, drawing, and socializing with her friends. She has been in foster care for two years and is on track to be adopted by her foster parents. When Millie came into care, she had only the clothes on her back and her special blanket, which kept her safe and warm at night. Millie has made great strides in becoming a typical teenager; she now focuses on what to wear to school and her grades, rather than worrying about raising her siblings. As an outstanding student, she strives for straight A's every quarter. Millie hopes to become a marine biologist after graduating from high school and dreams of swimming with sharks in faraway lands.
