Ke'Inou, 20 years old

Wish submitted by:

Ke'inou is a determined young man whose life story is shaped by resilience and a desire to make a difference for himself and fellow former foster youth. Growing up in the foster care system with little support, he is focused on achieving his high school diploma—an essential step toward building a better future. Despite facing numerous challenges, Ke'inou's determination remains strong. His goal extends beyond personal success; he aims to help current and former foster youth find empowerment through boxing. He recognizes that many struggle to manage their emotions, and for him, boxing offers a physical outlet to channel anger and frustration, helping others regain confidence and resilience.

In an effort to make his dreams a reality, Ke'inou urgently needs a laptop to complete his schoolwork and continue working toward his high school diploma. Without a reliable device, it’s difficult for him to stay on top of his assignments and submit homework on time, and he struggles to fill out employment applications to gain the work experience he needs. A laptop would not only give Ke'inou the ability to complete his schoolwork more efficiently, but it would also help him access employment opportunities and take steps toward greater independence.
