Anderson, 19 years old, CA

Wish submitted by:

Anderson is a resilient young man who is working to overcome past trauma. He entered care at a young age and was placed in a non-relative home. Although he struggles internally with his mental health, he approaches life with strength and positivity. He is rarely seen without a smile on his face and often spends time laughing and enjoying life. His strongest support system includes his two sisters and his best friend—people he says he couldn't imagine living without. In his free time, Anderson enjoys spending time outdoors with his friend, participating in various activities that bring him joy and peace.

Anthony would like a CVS gift card to purchase essential personal care items, such as toothpaste and shampoo. He lives with a friend’s family and prefers specific products that work best for him, especially a shampoo that keeps his hair from getting greasy. Anthony was recently hired at Target and will start working next week. However, until he has a steady income, he needs support to purchase these basic essentials. A CVS gift card would help Anthony maintain his personal hygiene with the products that suit him, giving him confidence and dignity as he begins this next chapter in his life.
