Anderson, 19 years old, CA

Wish submitted by:

Anderson is a resilient young man who is working to overcome past trauma. He entered care at a young age and was placed in a non-relative home. Although he struggles internally with his mental health, he approaches life with strength and positivity. He is rarely seen without a smile on his face and often spends time laughing and enjoying life. His strongest support system includes his two sisters and his best friend—people he says he couldn't imagine living without. In his free time, Anderson enjoys spending time outdoors with his friend, participating in various activities that bring him joy and peace.

Anthony recently found himself in an unsafe situation that led to his placement in emergency care. Due to the urgent nature of this move, he was unable to take any personal belongings with him and left with only the clothes he was wearing. In the meantime, a friend has generously offered him some clothing to borrow. However, Anthony hopes to purchase a few clothing items for himself to ensure he has clothes that meet his needs and provide a sense of stability during this transition. This is part 1 of 2 wishes so that Anthony can shop for what he needs.
