Miguel, 19 years old, OR | 37 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Miguel lived with his uncle because his parents were struggling, and it wasn’t safe for him to be with them. His uncle worked hard to give Miguel a stable home, but as Miguel grew older, he ended up in foster care as a teenager. This was a difficult change, and adjusting to a new home was hard for him. During this tough time, he found comfort in nature. Camping became his way to escape and relax. Miguel has two younger siblings still in foster care, and he hopes they can be reunited with their uncle soon. He stays in touch with them to show they’re not alone, and he is determined to support them, just like he wished he had support when he first entered foster care.

Miguel is wishing for a cute artificial plant to help make his house feel more inviting and welcoming. Adding a plant would bring warmth and a touch of personality to his space without the upkeep of a live plant. This small decorative item would help brighten his home and create a more comfortable environment where he can relax and feel at ease.
