Gabe, 17 years old, CA

Wish submitted by:

Gabe is full of energy and has a natural gift for making others smile. He is currently working on overcoming some personal barriers by attending therapy once a week, showing his dedication to growth and resilience. Gabe lives in a foster home with two loving caregivers, and he feels grateful to share this home with his brother by his side. In this supportive environment, Gabe is free to be himself—without pressure to change or hide who he is. Gabe admits he only somewhat enjoys school, but he especially loves his favorite subject, Art, where he can express himself creatively. Outside of school, he enjoys spending time at home and listening to music, which brings him comfort and joy.

Gavin is wishing for a set of speakers for his record player so he can enjoy his favorite albums with better sound. Music is one of his biggest passions, and collecting and listening to vinyl records has become one of his favorite hobbies. He has spent time building his record collection and loves the unique experience that vinyl offers. Listening to music helps him relax, express himself, and unwind after a long day. A quality set of speakers would let him hear the full sound of his favorite artists, like Melanie Martinez, and make every listening session even more enjoyable.
