Caleb, 22 years old, OR

Wish submitted by:

Caleb’s journey through life has been anything but ordinary. Growing up in foster care, he cycled through multiple homes, never staying in one place for long. Despite the instability, he carried with him an unbreakable sense of hope and determination. Twice, he was adopted, only to face the heartbreak of those families not being able to provide the lasting stability he craved. But Caleb’s resilience kept him going. He learned to navigate the twists and turns of a life that was often out of his control, finding solace in his imagination and a deep desire to one day share his story with the world. One of his biggest dreams is to become an author, creating children’s books that inspire hope and resilience in young readers. He wants to write stories that show children, especially those in the foster care system, that no matter how many times life knocks them down, they can rise again. For Caleb, this is just the beginning of the life he’s always dreamed of—a life built on hope, creativity, and the belief that every child deserves a chance at a better tomorrow.

Caleb is requesting an Amazon gift card so he can purchase the specific items he needs to complete an oil change for his car, including oil, a filter, and any additional supplies that may vary depending on his vehicle’s make and model. A gift card is necessary in this case because it allows him the flexibility to select the correct parts and brands that fit his car, as well as adjust for pricing, availability, or any unexpected items he may need during the process. Maintaining regular oil changes is essential to keeping his vehicle running safely and reliably, especially as he depends on it for daily responsibilities like work, appointments, and transportation. The cost of these supplies can be a barrier, and this support will help ensure he can take care of his car without added financial strain.
