Jacob, 20 years old, FL | 6 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Jacob is a bright young parent who has overcome many obstacles. He has experienced childhood trauma, tragedy in losing his father, and negative influences that led him down a path of unfavorable consequences. He has successfully completed a commitment program, and has earned numerous certifications, including construction, that will allow him to enter the job market and become a productive citizen in society. Jacob has been able to turn his life around for the better and cites his motivation as being a better parent to his daughter than his own experience with his parents.

Jacob is working hard to become a medical assistant, but he's hit an unexpected obstacle: he needs to buy a textbook that his tuition doesn't cover. Without it, staying on pace with his coursework becomes much harder, right when consistency matters most. Jacob has already shown real resilience just to get this far, overcoming real challenges along the way to keep pursuing this career. Getting this book would remove a real barrier standing between him and his coursework, letting Jacob stay focused and keep moving steadily toward the future he's worked so hard to build.
