Chris, 22 years old, OR | 21 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Chris's childhood was marked by instability, moving through foster homes, group homes, and juvenile detention facilities. Born to a Samoan mother and a Black father, he often struggled to find a sense of belonging. His early years were filled with anger and frustration, but he later embraced his heritage through cultural events and practices. As an adult, Chris channels his experiences into advocacy and systems reform, aiming to support youth in the foster care and juvenile justice systems. He believes that understanding one’s culture and history is crucial for healing and breaking cycles of trauma. Committed to making a difference, he empowers marginalized communities. His goal is to ensure future generations have the resources and opportunities for brighter futures.

Chris is looking for a king-size bed frame because his mattress currently sits directly on the floor, making his space feel temporary and incomplete. He wants a bed frame not just for support, but to improve his sleep and support his health. A proper bed would provide him with dignity and a dedicated place to rest and recharge. After long days, he deserves a secure and restful environment, rather than a makeshift setup. A king-size would transform his room into a comforting sanctuary, giving him the peace of mind he needs for true relaxation and renewal.
