Dwynea, age 15
We love to see a young person with ambition and a clear sense of who they want to be in the world. Our friend Dwynea is one of those people! She has her heart and mind focused on becoming an attorney, which we think is fantastic. We know she’ll be a wonderful advocate and force for good in whatever she does! Her path to that goal has not been an easy one. She struggles at times with her past trauma and can get depressed and act out in some negative ways, but she always pulls herself back to a good place and moves forward. At her core, she’s a young woman like any other teen her age. She loves her snacks, like Takis and Snickers, and she enjoys her summers and the freedom they bring. But she knows she has a purpose in this life, and she needs you to help her fulfill it. The best family for Dwynea is one led by a single mom where Dwynea can be the youngest or the only child in the family. If that sounds like your family, Dwynea may be the piece your family is missing!
