JR, 15 years old, CA | 4 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

CASA CA - Los Angeles County

JR is a polite and respectful young man who is navigating the challenges of high school. He has an interest in video games, music, especially as he teaches himself to play the guitar, and soccer, both as a player and a fan. After the passing of his caregiver, JR entered foster care and has been adjusting to life as a teenager. Even with these changes, he strives to do good. JR is curious, adaptable, kind, and optimistic. Despite his circumstances, he looks to the future and works to improve himself and his situation.

JR really wants a laptop so he can keep up with his classwork and submit homework from home. Having a laptop would let him carry his schoolwork with him wherever he goes, making it easier for him to stay organized. Besides needing it for school, he also wants to use it to watch movies and catch soccer games during his free time. Plus, he plans to continue learning guitar by following along with videos on YouTube. This laptop would be an essential tool for him, especially as he gets ready for high school and eventually college. It would also help him feel more connected to his friends, as many of them have one too.
