Tyreek, 18 years old, PA | 3 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Tyreek is an athletic young man who enjoys biking, skating, and hiking. He also enjoys playing video games occasionally, but prefers to be active outdoors. He was placed in foster care due to his family being unfit to raise him. He was reunited with his family and began working toward his goal of attending college. While he once felt uncomfortable sharing this part of his story, over time, he has grown more open and confident in discussing his experiences.

Tyreek is requesting a Steam Deck because gaming is an important source of stress relief and enjoyment for him. Playing games helps him decompress, manage stress, and take mental breaks during challenging times. Having a portable gaming device like the Steam Deck would allow him to access this coping mechanism anywhere, whether he is at home or on the go. This would significantly enhance his ability to relax, recharge, and maintain balance in his daily life.
