A Dresser with Locked Drawers for Andrew who wants to feel more secure

Posted Jul 21, 2022
Andrew just moved in to his very first apartment. He has thoughtfully chosen pieces that he believes would look great in the space and make him feel secure. He is interested in a five-drawer dresser that he can store his clothing in and any other valuables, as it comes with a lock and key. Andrew would be so grateful for assistance with purchasing this dresser, as he is on a very limited income and needs somewhere to store his clothes, important documents and valuable items.

Andrew is 23 years old and lives in NY

Andrew is an upbeat, motivated young man who has been living in a homeless shelter for the past three years. He recently received an emergency housing voucher and is in the process of searching for his very first apartment. Next year, he will take classes to gain his High School Equivalency (HSE) and will complete an internship. His interests include gaming, politics, journalism and cooking.

Awesome Human grants the wish for Andrew! Thanks Awesome Human.

"I'm extremely proud of you! I know sometimes the older kids get overlooked but you really do matter! Nobody ends up in a homeless shelter at 18 just "for the fun of it". I'm in an unsure position in my life right now and scared trying to decide which direction to go. Seeing you trying so hard has given me the courage to "try". Thank you, Andrew, for the confidence. And thank you for letting me be a part of your journey. You can do it! I believe in you! Even if you don't. Best wishes, Tina"
