James, 23 years old, CA | NEEDED BY 09/18

Wish submitted by:

James is a young adult living in a supportive transitional housing program after his foster care journey. He remains closely connected with his wonderful foster family as he continues to grow and learn how to live independently. James loves movies and going to the beach, and he is also an active member of a Youth Action Board.

Jack's birthday is coming up, and he's looking forward to celebrating with his foster family, with whom he has a strong and supportive relationship. Birthdays haven't always been easy for Jack given the challenges he's faced throughout his life, so this year, we'd love to help make it a positive and memorable one. Jack has been working hard at his new job, showing real responsibility and determination. Despite earning an income, he's put nearly all of it toward repaying rental debt and maintaining housing stability, leaving him little chance to spend money on himself or enjoy the rewards of his hard work. A Target gift card would let Jack choose something special for himself and celebrate his birthday in a meaningful way. It would also recognize the dedication and progress he's shown this past year, giving him the rare chance to focus on himself and enjoy a birthday that feels truly his.
