Issiah, 19 years old, NJ |

Wish submitted by:

Issiah is a resilient, determined adolescent. He has a history of being physically abused which resulted into behavioral and mental health issues. Today, Issiah is healthy and thriving. He attends a 2-year program at vocational school for welding. He has a full-time job. Issiah is mature, cordial, and has a positive outlook on future.

Issiah’s wish is to receive a gas gift card, which would help him minimize the impact of fuel costs on his monthly income. After passing his driver’s test, he purchased his first used car in August, allowing him to drive to school and work each day. He is responsible for the car's maintenance as well as a portion of its insurance costs. Receiving a gas gift card would significantly reduce the stress he faces regarding his bills and finances. To further establish his financial independence, Issiah was approved for a credit card, which he uses for small purchases and pays off on time. This gas gift card will enable him to allocate his money more effectively toward his other financial responsibilities, alleviating some of his concerns about gas expenses. By incorporating this gift into his budget, Issiah can devise a plan to maximize his savings. Overall, this gift would provide substantial support in his transition into adulthood.
