Caleb M, 20 years old, AZ

Wish submitted by:

Caleb is resilient and determined, facing an unstable housing situation while working less than 20 hours a week. He currently lives in a car in front of his former mentor's house, reflecting both the challenges he faces and his effort to stay connected with those who support him. A significant event in his life served as the catalyst that led him to lose nearly everything and end up in his current predicament. Despite this difficult experience, he has managed to forge meaningful friendships and maintains a strong desire to thrive and improve his situation. He is committed to his current job and is actively seeking better opportunities that will enable him to move toward stability and independence. His story is a testament to perseverance, hope, and the motivation to overcome obstacles. With the right support, he has the potential to rebuild his life and achieve greater security and well-being.

Caleb is currently experiencing homelessness but is working hard to rebuild his life. He got a job and has been doing everything he can to save money and stay motivated. One of the biggest challenges he faces is not having appropriate clothing to wear to work or interviews. A Ross gift card would help him purchase clean, professional, and comfortable clothes so he can feel confident and presentable while working toward stability and independence. Having proper clothing would not only help him make a good impression at work, but also give him dignity, encouragement, and a stronger sense of hope as he continues moving forward. This is wish 2 of 2.
