Cory, 16 years old, CA | 44 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Cory is living in a foster home, separated from his two siblings. Despite facing many hardships, he has managed to overcome each challenge that comes his way. Although he initially appears timid and soft-spoken, once he feels comfortable, he starts to open up, revealing his sympathetic personality. Cory is charming and well-mannered, treating everyone with respect. He enjoys experimenting in the kitchen, particularly with breakfast dishes and fettuccine alfredo. Cory is enthusiastic about school and staying physically active; he is a member of his school's boys' varsity volleyball team and consistently attends gym sessions. He is interested in attending a four-year university after high school, specifically UCLA, and hopes to join the men's volleyball team there..

Cory needs a laptop because his high school does not provide one for students. His foster mom only has a single family computer, which she uses for her work from home. As a result, Cory sometimes goes to libraries to access computers for his homework and projects. However, it would be more convenient for him to have his own laptop to use in the comfort of his room.
