Jesse, 17 years old

Wish submitted by:

Jesse has been through a lot in foster care, moving between different homes. But now he’s finally living with his grandmother, which makes him really happy as he gets to reconnect with her and his family. Jesse loves being outdoors and playing sports. He has a big passion for cutting hair and wants to become a barber one day. After high school, he plans to go to college to study business because he dreams of opening his own barber shop. Jesse also has a caring side and is interested in therapy. He wants to help people feel better, both in how they look and how they feel inside.

Jesse is thrilled to be living with his grandmother. However, one challenge is that his grandmother does not drive, and Jesse needs assistance getting around to find a job. Unfortunately, there aren't many employment options within walking distance of their home. Jesse would really appreciate having a bike to help him get around. He also loves sports and hopes to join both the football and basketball teams. Owning a bike would enable him to pursue these goals and explore his hobbies and interests.
