Breanna, 12 years old

Wish submitted by:

Breanna has a contagious smile that brightens up any room she enters. Currently, she lives in a hotel with her mom as they await safe and secure housing. Her mom has endured a lifetime of trauma from violence, but she is resolute in providing Breanna with better opportunities and support to help her build a positive future. Inspired by her experiences, Breanna aspires to become a police officer one day, aiming to help others and ensure that children know they are safe. With her vibrant personality, Breanna is curious about the world around her and expresses herself through colorful bows in her braids. She is incredibly compassionate, always the first to lend a hand to someone who seems sad or alone. Her love for school and making new friends shines through in her daily interactions, making her not only a joy to be around but also a beacon of hope for those in her community.

Breanna’s wish is both simple and deeply meaningful: she longs for a soft, cozy blanket and a pillow to cuddle with in her new space. These items will hold special significance for her, providing a comforting presence that serves as a reminder of her strength and her right to peace. More than just a blanket and pillow, they will symbolize the warmth and love she has found within herself from her mom and the fresh start they are about to embrace. Breanna’s wish represents a small but significant step toward helping her feel at home again. Let’s support her in creating a space where she can truly feel safe and cherished, beginning with the comfort of a blanket and pillow that will always remind her that hope never fades.
