Jay'Den, 19 years old, CA | 42 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Jay'Den is an intelligent and inquisitive young man with a real passion for computers and basketball. He takes pride in being the leader of his friend group. In fact, he even built his own gaming computer by hand! He saved up for each part and learned how to put everything together piece by piece. Growing up wasn't easy for him; he moved in and out of foster care frequently, which made stability hard to come by. Now, he’s determined to create a better future for himself, seeking the support he needs to juggle work and school independently.

Jay'Den needs help with driving lessons because he is having difficulty commuting to work using public transport and his bike. The cost of driving lessons has been a significant barrier for him in pursuing a driver's license and a car. Financial assistance for these lessons would greatly enhance his ability to obtain his license and work towards achieving his goal of owning his first car. As he plans for his future and considers returning to school, having a driver's license will provide him with the freedom and peace of mind necessary to take important steps toward his career.
