Music gift card for Ezra who has anxiety before going to school
Ezra, 15 years old, CA
Wish submitted by:
Voices for Children - San DiegoEzra and his two younger sisters were removed from the custody of their parents. They experienced a significant amount of trauma watching their parents being arrested, and suddenly being separated from them and each other. Ezra has made a great deal of progress in therapy in dealing with the changes in his life, but suffers from a tremendous amount of anxiety that has surfaced as he discusses his trauma. Ezra tells his foster mother that his anxiety surfaces often before school, although he is not always able to voice why. Ezra loves martial arts, museums, and music most of all.
Ezra is passionate about music, as it brings him calm and focus. Recently, he's been experiencing anxiety that has started to impact his school attendance. One of the few things that brings him relief is listening to music. He hopes to receive a Spotify gift card, which would allow him to access a wide range of music to help ease his fears and anxiety before school. Ezra is determined to maintain his strong academic record, and it's impressive that he is able to recognize effective coping strategies, such as music and conversations with his therapist, to help him reach this goal.

"Thank you so much for the Spotify membership gift card! I am really trying to balance school with giving in to my anxiety over the last few weeks, and music on the way to and from school makes me feel like I can get through the day. I can't tell you how much this helps me and I will never forget it. Ezra"
