Billy, 16 years old, OR

Wish submitted by:

Billy grew up in foster care, moving from one place to another and never quite feeling at home. Each new move meant new rules, schools, and people, which made him tired and frustrated. He learned not to get too comfortable because things could change at any moment. But there was one thing he always loved: being outside. Running, climbing, and feeling the wind made him feel free and happy. Now, for the first time in a long while, Billy is in a foster home where he can stay for a bit. He’s starting to feel a bit normal with a routine and friendly faces at the dinner table. He knows he has a cozy bed to return to every night. He spends his days outside, playing basketball, riding his bike, and running just for the fun of it.

Billy is asking for help to purchase essential hygiene supplies. These basic items are important for comfort, dignity, and overall well-being, and having access to them can significantly improve daily life. A gift card would help Billy meet his immediate needs and feel supported during this time, providing practical relief through something simple yet meaningful.
