Isaiah, 17 years old, NE |

Wish submitted by:

Isaiah is a kind, hardworking young man who fills his days with school, work, sports, and youth group. Even with such a busy schedule, he makes time for the people he cares about—his friends, his girlfriend—and he finds joy in playing soccer, running cross country, and relaxing with a good video game when life slows down for a moment. Isaiah is currently in foster care and is preparing to step into independent living. This is a big transition, but he’s facing it with so much courage, maturity, and hope for his future. What stands out most about Isaiah is the warmth he brings to every room. He’s outgoing, determined, and truly a joy to be around. He has worked hard for everything he has, and he continues to move forward with a quiet strength that inspires everyone who knows him.

Isaiah is a devoted high school senior who truly takes pride in his education. His days are full—after school, he pours his energy into sports and school activities, and in the evenings, he heads to youth group and work. Even with such a demanding schedule, he continues to show up with determination, positivity, and a strong commitment to his future. Isaiah rarely gets any downtime for himself, but when he does, he enjoys playing Xbox. A gift card to Best Buy would help him put money towards a new Xbox that he’s been wanting for quite some time.
