Ruth, 15 years old, CA

I am reaching out on behalf of a foster youth who would greatly benefit from having a desk of her own. She is a bright, hardworking student who takes her education seriously and is committed to doing well in school despite the many challenges she has faced in her young life. Currently, she does not have a dedicated space for completing homework, studying, or participating in school-related activities. Much of her work is done at a kitchen table or other shared areas of the home, where distractions can make it difficult to focus and stay organized. Having her own desk would provide more than just a piece of furniture. It would give her a quiet, consistent space where she can concentrate on her schoolwork, keep her educational materials organized, and develop positive study habits. It would also send a powerful message that her education is important and that she is worthy of having a space dedicated to her success. Your generosity would directly support her academic growth, self-confidence, and independence. A desk may seem like a simple item, but for this young person, it would be an investment in her future and a reminder that there are people who believe in her and want to see her thrive. Thank you for considering this wish. https://www.target.com/p/costway-22-wide-computer-desk-writing-study-laptop-table-w-drawer-keyboard-tray-black/-/A-85945992
