Segundo, 17 years old, MI | 33 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Segundo is one of the sweetest young men you will meet. He's got a big heart and can genuinely connect with other youth from different backgrounds. Segundo has been in foster care since before he was a teenager and has had multiple placements. However, through each placement, he's used music, reading, and basketball to get through tough times. Segundo is not quick to give up and thrives at being an underdog.

Segundo "Gundo" is a remarkable teenager who lives in a bustling household with his older sister and nephew. Unlike many his age, Gundo consistently goes above and beyond to help out around the house. You'll often find him doing dishes without being asked or tending to the yard, tasks he embraces with pride and dedication. His main focus is on creating a better environment for his sister and nephew, which is why, when it came time for a gift last year, he selflessly opted for a hedge trimmer, something practical that would truly benefit his family rather than asking for something for himself. However, like any teen, Gundo deserves moments to unwind and just be a kid. He finds joy in music and uses it as a way to escape the daily hustle and bustle of his home. That's why he's been thinking about getting a nice pair of Bose Noise Canceling headphones. With these, Gundo could immerse himself in his favorite genre, rap, and enjoy some quiet time away from responsibilities. He truly deserves this opportunity to relax and reconnect with his passion for music.
