Samuel, 17 years old, CA |

Wish submitted by:

Samuel lives in a kinship home and is the oldest sibling. He is lovingly described as a “teddy bear” because of his tall stature and gentle kindness. Samuel enjoys helping around the house, whether it’s cleaning, carrying groceries, or babysitting his younger brother and cousins. He is known for being respectful toward others and is a quiet, kind soul. Dedicated to his studies, Samuel is focused on his schoolwork and looks forward to graduating in 2026.

Samuel’s school has already begun preparing for next year’s graduation, encouraging students to purchase their cap and gown as soon as possible. Receiving this package will help Samuel feel included among his peers and create lasting memories during this exciting milestone. Living in a kinship home with five boys has been a financial challenge, so this support will make a meaningful difference. It will bring joy to Samuel, knowing he has what he needs to proudly walk across the stage.
