Troy, 18 years old, OR | NEEDED BY 10/02

Wish submitted by:

Troy faced more challenges than most kids growing up. He moved between juvenile detention centers and foster homes, never feeling settled. His difficult childhood left him to navigate life mostly on his own, but he discovered two passions that give him purpose: football and dirt biking. Football provided Troy with an outlet and a sense of belonging, while the thrill of dirt biking helped clear his mind and made him feel alive. Both activities offered him structure and a way to escape his tough reality. Despite his rough start, Troy remains hopeful that his love for these sports can lead to a better future.

Troy is wishing for a Lyft gift card to help him get through the week while his car is in the shop. Without his car, getting where he needs to go has become harder and more expensive, but he still needs to make it to work and class each day. A Lyft gift card would ease some of that stress by helping cover the cost of rides until his car is back on the road. This extra support would help Troy stay on track with both work and school without worrying about how he is going to get there.
