Jayden, 17 years old, NJ |

Wish submitted by:

Jayden is the oldest of four children in a family receiving supportive services from DCFS. He loves to create with Legos and often prefers designing his own creations instead of following the instruction booklet. He has a strong interest in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics), particularly in robotics and building planes. He enjoys watching science videos and dreams of becoming an engineer, with the goal of constructing skyscrapers in a city.

Jayden and his family recently fled from another state to New Jersey due to domestic violence. Currently, Jayden and his brothers have no means of entertainment; the family has no phone, computer, car, or friends nearby. Jayden had to leave all of his belongings behind, including his laptop. Jayden is very smart and talented, and he loves to build things for fun. Having a laptop would not only assist him educationally by allowing him to watch videos that teach him how to build, but it would also provide much-needed entertainment for his siblings, as they could watch videos together. Additionally, the laptop would enable their mother to fill out job applications. This gift would be life-changing for the entire family!
