Patrick, 19 years old, TN

Wish submitted by:

Patrick is a recently aged-out foster youth who has transitioned into extended foster care. Though soft-spoken, he has a wonderful sense of humor and loves making jokes. He enjoys playing video games, card games, and PC games in his free time. He maintains a strong, daily relationship with his mother and stays in close contact with his younger sibling, who is still in the foster care system. He is a responsible young man with aspirations of joining the army. Patrick is focused on gaining job experience and pursuing an education in mechanics at his local community college.

Patrick would love to have a new bed frame for his room. He has been living in his current placement for about a year, and while his room is acceptable, the bedding is not very comfortable. Although Patrick has managed with what he has, he would greatly appreciate support in creating a more comfortable space. A good night's rest will help him have more productive days.
