San Diego Youth Services

Anthony is a respectful young man who brightens every room with his warm and uplifting personality. He’s deeply grateful for the strong support system in his life, his foster parents and foster brother, who continue to stay in touch and encourage him, even after he’s transitioned out of their home. Anthony lives in an extended foster care housing program and attends community college. In his free time, he loves discovering and trying new foods around San Diego, turning each meal into an adventure and a way to connect with the world around him.

Anthony takes great pride in keeping his home clean and organized. When you walk into his house, the first thing you notice is how tidy it is—so much so that guests are asked to take their shoes off. Despite sweeping multiple times a day, Anthony feels like the dirt never truly goes away, making it a constant struggle to maintain the level of cleanliness he values. He is requesting a cordless vacuum, which would make it easier for him to keep his home spotless, allowing him to fully enjoy a clean, welcoming space that reflects the care and pride he puts into his life.
