Chris, 23 years old, OR

Wish submitted by:

Chris had a tough childhood, bouncing around foster homes, group homes, and juvenile detention centers. With a Samoan mother and a Black father, he often felt like he didn’t quite fit in anywhere. His early life was filled with anger and frustration, but he eventually learned to embrace his cultural background through various events and practices. Now as an adult, Chris uses his experiences to advocate for change in the foster care and juvenile justice systems. He believes that having a strong understanding of one’s culture and history is essential for healing and breaking the cycle of trauma. Chris is dedicated to empowering marginalized communities and wants to ensure that future generations have the resources and opportunities they need for brighter futures.

Chris is super creative and is requesting a dice ottoman to help decorate his room. A dice ottoman would reflect his interest in fun, creative décor and serve as a unique focal point in his living space. Having this item would help make his space feel more personalized and complete, allowing him to enjoy a room that better reflects his personality and taste.
