Gage, 19 years old, OH | 3 DAYS WAITING | NEEDED BY 07/24

Wish submitted by:

Gage has faced more challenges than most at a young age. He entered foster care at just 8 years old due to his mother’s substance use and was unable to receive the care he needed. Over the years, he moved from home to home, eventually being placed in a group home where he spent several years trying to find stability. After aging out of the system at 18 without family support, Gage experienced homelessness. Despite these hardships, he remained determined. He found a sense of safety when a young woman and her family opened their garage to give him a place to stay.Through it all, Gage has shown resilience and motivation. He secured a job and is actively working to finish school by enrolling in online classes.

With his baby's due date approaching Gage needs a reliable way to get to prenatal appointments and the hospital but his scooter can't be used on the highway. A gas gift card would let a friend drive him there so he doesn't miss the birth of his son.
