Sheldon, 19 years old

Wish submitted by:

Sheldon is learning to live more independently and is developing the skills needed to navigate adulthood. He is currently living in his own apartment with support from his foster care case manager and Firefly. Having successfully graduated from high school, he is now focused on acquiring independent living skills. In his free time, when he is not working at his part-time job, Sheldon enjoys working on his truck, playing video games, and participating in sports. He is also setting long-term career goals and plans to attend welding school in the near future.

Sheldon needs a phone to stay connected with his friends and family, as well as for emergencies. He broke his phone and hasn't been able to replace it due to budgeting for his other bills and expenses. Having a new phone would enable him to keep in touch with others, including his workplace and any potential employers, as he searches for a full-time job. Currently, he has a part-time job but is also planning to attend welding school. It's important for him to have a reliable phone for job interviews and important communications with employers and the school.
