Matthew, 20 years old, CA | 1 DAY WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Matthew has lived in various foster homes and group homes throughout his life. He is a deep thinker who prefers to spend time alone, listening to music and reflecting on the meaning of the lyrics to his favorite songs. Recently, he has developed an interest in gardening and plans to purchase a few small tomato and strawberry plants to explore this new hobby. Although Matthew is shy, he has decided to pursue an education in welding and hopes to complete a trade school program that will enable him to find full-time employment in this field. Matthew is respectful and independent, with a strong desire to achieve the goals he sets for himself, regardless of how challenging the journey may be.

Matthew’s dog is an important source of companionship and support for him, especially as he continues working toward stability and independence. His dog needs flea and tick prevention treatments, along with basic pet care supplies, to stay healthy and comfortable. A gift card would help Matthew purchase the necessary treatments and supplies to protect his dog from fleas and ticks and ensure his pet continues receiving the care he deserves. This support would allow Matthew to provide for his dog while managing the many expenses that come with transitioning into adulthood and independent living.
