Marcus, 20 years old, KS

Wish submitted by:

Marcus is starting another exciting semester studying Computer Science with a focus on software development. After aging out of foster care, he has worked hard to create stability while balancing school, work, and an internship. Marcus enjoys gaming, coding, and building custom computers in his spare time. He hopes to become a software engineer and eventually mentor other youth leaving foster care. Reliable transportation from his internship has become one of his biggest challenges, and rideshare expenses quickly add up.

Marcus is committed to making the most of every opportunity in front of him. Between college classes, his internship, and the responsibilities of living independently after foster care, his schedule keeps him on the move. Reliable transportation is essential to keeping up with everything on his calendar, but the cost of getting around can quickly become another financial hurdle. A Lyft gift card would help Marcus travel safely to class, his internship, and other important commitments without adding additional stress to his budget.
