Wish submitted by:

Xan has spent most of his life in foster care, facing a lot of instability and change. Even with these challenges, he has developed a strong resilience that helps him as he becomes an adult. Now, Xan is focused on creating a stable and independent life for himself, based on growth, responsibility, and hope. He approaches this new chapter with an open mind and a willingness to learn. Xan is kind, friendly, and thoughtful, which helps him build real connections with others. He loves tattoos and piercings, and he enjoys gaming and hanging out with friends—activities that make him feel grounded and connected. Xan is working hard to overcome the difficulties that come with growing up in care, and he is taking positive steps toward independence. With the right support, he can create a strong foundation for his future, one that is shaped by his determination and potential rather than his past.

Xan is hoping to receive an Owala water bottle to help him build healthier routines as he steps into adulthood. After spending most of his life in foster care, consistency and self-care have been difficult to maintain. Now, Xan is working hard to establish positive habits and structure in his daily life. Having a durable, high-quality water bottle would support his goal of staying hydrated, taking care of himself, and feeling more organized throughout the day. This small but important item would be a daily reminder that he is deserving of care, stability, and support as he continues striving to become more independent.
