Andrew, 24 years old, CA

Wish submitted by:

At the age of 13, Andrew entered foster care after being abandoned by their mother, having previously experienced homelessness and difficulty in school. They navigated through various group homes, each lacking the stability they yearned for. Now, for the first time, they have found a true home and are working hard to build a lasting and meaningful life for themselves.

Andrew has gotten interested in sewing and wants to fill his free time with something creative and purposeful. He is building good routines. A sewing machine would give him a positive outlet that is also practical, something he can keep coming back to as he settles into the kind of stable, independent life he is working to create.
