Serenity, 19 years old, NJ

Wish submitted by:

Serenity is both hardworking and determined. She is beginning her college journey with a clear vision for the future. With a strong interest in early childhood care, she is motivated to learn and grow in a field that allows her to support and nurture young children. Serenity also values independence and is committed to developing the skills necessary to stand on her own while pursuing her personal and professional goals.

Serenity would benefit from an Uber gift card due to her current housing and transportation challenges. As a daycare teacher, it is important for her to maintain consistent and reliable attendance; however, while couch surfing, her living situation may change frequently, making her commute less predictable. She relies on public transportation, which can be limiting depending on location, timing, and access. An Uber gift card would provide a reliable backup option, especially in situations where public transit is unavailable, delayed, or does not align with her work schedule. This support would help ensure she can get to and from work safely and on time, maintain employment stability, and reduce the stress associated with transportation barriers. This is wish 1 of 2.
