Denis, 18 years old, PA | 35 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Arcadia University- H.O.M.E. Program

Denis is a creative young man with a passion for writing. He enjoys composing poetry and short stories and aspires to become an author in the future. He loves reading and has created a mini library at home. When he was thirteen, his mother tragically committed suicide, and his father essentially abandoned the family, leading to Denis entering foster care. He has found significant healing through journaling and scrapbooking. Currently, he lives with his maternal uncle and aunt, along with his two younger brothers.

Denis loves to write stories and use journals to express his feelings. He is asking for an Archer & Olive gift card to purchase journals and journaling supplies, which would be amazing for an avid writer like him. Writing has become an essential outlet for him in processing his grief and trauma. Everything he’s thinking and feeling, all his interests, and even the things he collects end up in journals. It’s how he processes the world around him. This wish is split into two requests. This is wish 2 of 2.
