Emergency Food for Uyi's Difficult Season
Uyi, 26 years old
Wish submitted by:
City Living NYUyi left foster care around 2014/15, being discharged to family via a kinship placement. Unfortunately, this did not go well and by 2017 Uyi was residing in a homeless shelter. He remained there for about a year before moving to Binghamton to attend college. Uyi is not currently still in school due to his lack of a strong support system, but was linked to our agency in the hopes of locating housing back in NYC where our nonprofit, and others, can better assist him on his path to success.
Uyi unexpectedly had to leave the place he was staying. Despite the rigorous and hard-working efforts being done by this agency supports, he is expected to experience extreme housing insecurity over the next few months while he waits to be approved for an apartment. Uyi will be in great need for food access at times because of this. It would be great to provide Uyi an UberEats gift card so he can get a few hearty good meals for himself during the next two weeks of holiday season. This gift card will mean the world to Uyi!
