Patrick, 20 years old, OR

Wish submitted by:

Patrick’s journey has been shaped by years spent in and out of juvenile detention facilities, foster homes, and group homes. Despite these challenges, he is determined to carve out a new path for himself beyond the system. With a passion for art, Patrick is focused on envisioning a life outside the confines of his past experiences. He dreams of studying art in college, eager to refine his talent and explore new creative outlets. His unique perspective is evident in how he transforms everyday, overlooked objects into stunning works of art, finding beauty and expression in what others might disregard. Patrick's work is a testament to his resilience, creativity, and hope for a future where he can thrive on his own terms.

Patrick would love the chance to go to Chick-fil-A with his friends. It would be a simple way for him to enjoy a fun night out, share a meal, and spend quality time with people who matter to him. His friends often get together, but he can't always join them because he lacks the funds. A gift card would eliminate this financial barrier and allow Patrick to spend time with his friends.
