Diego, 17 years old, CA | 43 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Diego is hardworking and has demonstrated remarkable determination despite the numerous challenges he encountered while growing up in foster care. After experiencing multiple placements throughout his childhood, he is now in a stable and supportive home where he is thriving as he prepares for adulthood. Diego takes great pride in his education. He is also an active member of his school’s track team and regularly participates in running competitions. In addition to balancing his schoolwork and athletics, Diego is very independent; he cooks for himself, does his own laundry, and ensures that he attends school every day. His caregiver is incredibly proud of his dedication and maturity.

Diego is eager to reward his hard work with something truly special. He dreams of an Xbox, a gift that would allow him to relax and unwind after long days filled with studying and training. As he prepares to graduate and transition out of foster care, this Xbox would hold significant meaning for him, providing a personal touch he can carry with him into the next chapter of his life. Having something of his own to enjoy during his downtime would serve as a wonderful reminder of the support and encouragement he's received during this pivotal stage in his journey.
