Victor, 18 years old, CA |

Wish submitted by:

Victor is a great young man who is focused on overcoming his past trauma. He currently lives in a group home and is working toward transitioning into extended foster care housing. With limited family support nearby, Victor relies on his group home staff and extended foster care team for guidance and encouragement. He consistently shows respect and gratitude toward his team, appreciating everything they have done for him. Victor has a great sense of humor, often making his team laugh and reminding them to enjoy life.

A Food 4 Less gift card would give Victor immediate support by helping him purchase groceries and maintain consistent access to food while he gets settled. Although he plans to utilize food banks when available, those resources are often limited. Having the ability to buy groceries would provide stability and peace of mind, allowing Victor to focus on school, job applications, and adjusting to independent living. Food is especially meaningful to Victor because he has a genuine passion for cooking balanced, nourishing meals. While living in the group home, he regularly prepared meals for his peers and staff, finding pride and connection in caring for others through food. This gift card would allow Victor to continue that positive routine—cooking healthy meals for himself and building life skills that support his well-being and independence.
