Alex, 20 years old, MA

Wish submitted by:

Alex, who aged out of foster care, lives independently with their rescue dog, Luna, who has been a constant source of companionship and joy. Passionate about dog training and sports like Fast CAT, Alex thrives on helping Luna develop new skills while building their own confidence. In their downtime, Alex immerses themselves in painting, photography, and sewing—creative outlets that allow them to express their unique perspective on the world. With a curious mind, Alex is fascinated by topics like forensics, marine biology, and geology, constantly exploring new interests that fuel their personal growth. Alex’s story is one of resilience, creativity, and a deep love for both their passions and their beloved companion.

Alex is a hardworking foster care alum heading to college. They could use a little help getting settled. Dorm beds require Twin XL fitted sheets, and Alex doesn’t currently have any sheets at all. Not having basic bedding led to some teasing on campus last year, and Alex is simply hoping for the comfort and confidence that comes with having what they need, just like everyone else. They are requesting a few sets of soft, durable fitted sheets to make Alex’s dorm room feel more like home.
