A mini fridge for Deron who doesn't want to give up Grandma's home-cooked meals while starting college
Dereon, 18 years old, OR | 
NEEDED BY 09/18
Wish submitted by:
Greater Oregon Behavioral Health, IncDereon is being raised by his grandmother, and he loves playing sports. He has just been granted a full-ride scholarship for college, and he is very excited to start this next chapter of his life. He is outgoing and makes friends easily. He is also very helpful around the house and serves as a great role model for his younger brother.
Deron is heading off to his first year of college, and while he's excited about this new chapter, one thing he knows he'll miss is Grandma's home-cooked meals. A mini fridge for his dorm room would mean she can still send him off with a few special meals to keep on hand, so he doesn't have to give up that taste of home just because he's away from it. It would also give him a place to store healthy snacks and drinks, making it easier to skip pricey vending machine runs and cafeteria trips when he's short on time or money. Since Deron will be playing sports throughout the year, having real food options nearby matters; it's part of taking care of his body as he juggles training and school. For his first time living on his own, this small addition would go a long way in helping him feel supported, even from a distance.
