Wish submitted by:

Elijah is an exceptionally intelligent, articulate, and insightful young man who approaches every goal with determination and perseverance. As a foster youth currently in a transitional living program, he continuously strives to build a bright future, working hard in his studies despite learning disabilities by actively seeking guidance and pushing through challenges. Elijah dreams of earning a bachelor’s degree in marine biology and pursuing a master’s degree. He was also recently approved for an emotional support animal (ESA) to accompany him on his journey toward independence. In his spare time, Elijah is a talented home cook who enjoys making healthy versions of his favorite homestyle meals, as well as an engaging online gamer with a growing following who hopes to turn his unique play-by-play style into a successful pursuit.

Elijah wishes for a Donkey Kong video game to play on his Switch. He lost a few video games on his trip to see his family. A new game would really make his Christmas special.
