Jacob, 15 years old, AZ | 28 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Arizona's Children Association

Jacob is a well-spoken and respectful young man who exudes a calm demeanor. Living in a group home, he has fostered positive relationships with those around him, showing a remarkable ability to advocate for himself thanks to his excellent communication skills. With aspirations of enrolling in a GED program, Jacob is eager to secure a job as soon as possible. In addition to his educational and professional goals, he also has a keen interest in art, which adds another dimension to his vibrant personality.

Jacob is excited about his recent move into a new group home, where he’s been getting along really well with both the staff and his peers. He’s been focusing on enrolling in a new school and is determined to find a job that suits him. One thing that he believes would really enhance his opportunities is having an electric scooter. Seeing some of his peers in the group home using electric scooters and hearing about their positive experiences has inspired him. Jacob feels that having a scooter would not only help him in his job search but also allow him to enjoy his free time more fully. Unfortunately, he currently doesn’t have the means to purchase one, especially since he just moved and is still looking for work. This wish will bring a big smile to his face!
