Guillermo, 20 years old, OR | 32 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

The Lost & Found Institute

Guillermo had a challenging childhood, moving between foster homes and never really having a place to call his own. Instead of letting this get him down, he found comfort in simple pleasures, particularly bike riding. Whenever life felt overwhelming, he would grab his bike and hit the road, enjoying the wind on his face and the feeling of freedom it brought him. Guillermo also loves working with his hands. Building things makes him feel good, whether he’s tackling small projects at home or helping out on construction sites. He dreams of starting his own construction company someday, creating solid work that he can be proud of. With hard work and passion, he hopes to make that dream a reality and build a stable and meaningful life.

Guillermo wishes for an Applebee’s gift card so he can treat himself and his little siblings to a special dinner. This wish comes from a place of love and care, as he hopes to provide his siblings with a fun and comforting experience where they can enjoy a meal together, laugh, and feel appreciated. More than just going out to eat, this dinner would give Guillermo the opportunity to create happy memories, strengthen their bond, and offer his siblings a moment of joy, warmth, and togetherness.
