Louis, 20 years old, OR

Wish submitted by:

Louis spent much of his childhood bouncing between different foster homes and group placements, never quite feeling like he belonged anywhere. The instability shaped him, making him resilient but also somewhat guarded. As he got older, he aged out of the foster care system, left with nothing but a few belongings in a duffel bag and the desire to carve out a future for himself. Despite the challenges, Louis has always dreamed of something bigger, a purpose beyond surviving day-to-day. He has aspirations of becoming a firefighter. The idea of saving lives, protecting nature, and facing the raw power of fire fills him with both awe and determination.

Louis is asking for an Amazon gift card so he can buy new headlights and bulbs for his car. His current lights are getting dim, and having bright, reliable headlights is important for driving safely at night. Rather than guessing which ones he needs, a gift card would allow him to pick out the right ones himself. He takes pride in keeping his car in good shape, and upgrading his headlights would not only improve visibility but also give his car a fresh look. This gift would be both practical and meaningful, helping him maintain something that’s important to him. This request has been split into two wishes to allow for a great shopping trip! This is wish 1 of 2.
