Ethan, 18 years old, KS | NEEDED BY 08/07

Wish submitted by:

Ever since Ethan was a kid, he has been fascinated by airplanes, rockets, and how things are designed to fly. Now, he is going to school for aerospace engineering. Ethan dreams of one day designing aircrafts that make travel safer and more efficient. He's hardworking, humble, and always willing to help others, often tutoring classmates in math and science. Growing up in foster care wasn't always easy, but it taught him perseverance, curiosity, and how to keep reaching for goals that once felt out of reach. In his spare time, he enjoys building model aircraft, playing basketball with friends, exploring museums, and spending time outdoors.

This fall marks an exciting new chapter for Ethan as he prepares to move into his dorm and begin studying aerospace engineering. Ethan loves gaming to relax after a long day and connect with his friends. He hopes to have an Xbox Series X in his dorm room before move-in as he thinks it will be a good way for him to meet new people and build community with those in his residence hall. Also, having something familiar in his new space would help make his dorm feel more like home as he adjusts to college life. Fulfilling this wish would help Ethan begin this exciting chapter with a sense of belonging and comfort.
