Arie, 16 years old, CA

Wish submitted by:

Arie is a sweet young lady. She has had a lot of responsibility for her siblings in the past while placed with their mother. It's been a difficult adjustment for her to rely on her aunt to care for she and her siblings but is working through it.

Arie is the oldest child of three siblings. She used to take care of her siblings when they were living with their mother. But now that she's living with her aunt, she has more time to focus on what she loves most - playing basketball. Arie is a huge basketball fan and it brings her a sense of normalcy that she was missing before. She's super excited to get back into the game and can't wait to show off her skills. Arie would love to go shopping for a pair of Nike basketball shoes so she can hit the court with confidence.
