AirPods for Quinton to replace his broken headphones for his birthday

Posted Jan 27, 2025
Quinton has his heart set on a pair of new AirPods for his birthday this year. His current headphones are starting to fall apart, with one side not working properly and the battery barely lasting through the day. He’s excited about how AirPods could make his daily routine easier, whether it’s listening to music during workouts, catching up on podcasts, joining calls, or staying focused while studying. The sleek design and improved sound quality would be a big upgrade from what he’s using now. Quinton has mentioned how much he’d love to have something more reliable and modern, and a pair of AirPods would truly make his birthday feel special and memorable.

Quinton is 19 years old and lives in OR

Quinton's childhood was filled with instability, moving through the foster care system and struggling with feelings of rejection and isolation. These experiences led to mental health challenges, including depression and suicidal thoughts, as he often felt invisible to those around him. Despite the adversity, Quinton developed resilience through mindfulness and movement, finding solace in yoga. He discovered his purpose as a trauma-informed yoga instructor, wanting to support system-involved youth facing hardships similar to his own. Now, as he pursues certification, he aims to create a safe space for young people to heal, grow, and feel seen.
