Ruben, 16 years old, CA | 7 DAYS WAITING | NEEDED BY 11/28

Wish submitted by:

Voices for Children - Riverside

Ruben's mother passed away, and his father abandoned him, which resulted in him and his younger brother entering foster care. His native language is Spanish, and he is learning to speak English as quickly as possible. Ruben feels overwhelmed by the changes in his life. He is working hard to succeed in school, but he does not understand all the concepts.

There is no better feeling than being celebrated on your birthday! This wish will provide Ruben with an extra surprise to open on their special day. Although their celebrations may look different this year, it will remind them that they are valued and remembered on this important occasion!
