HOLIDAY WISH

A New Computer Chair for Carlos to sit in comfortably

Posted Dec 20, 2021
Carlos recently moved in to his very first apartment after spending the last six years of his life in foster care. He is proud of his space and has many ideas about how he would like it to look. He selected this chair because it will allow him to sit comfortably at his future desk, where he will play video games, watch TV and apply for jobs in his field.

Carlos is 24 years old and lives in NY

Carlos is an incredible young man who recently aged out of foster care. Up until then, he had been living in a residential treatment setting, where "residents have significant trauma histories, resulting in behavioral, emotional, and functional issues that make it impossible to live in a more typical family setting." Carlos loves baking, spending time with his senior Chihuahua/Doberman mix, playing video games and watching comedy specials. He has been diligently searching for work in his field and moved into his very first apartment which he has really made his own by adding his unique style and sense of humor to the space.
