Isaiah, 17 years old, NE

Isaiah is a kind, hardworking young man who fills his days with school, work, sports, and youth group. Even with such a busy schedule, he makes time for the people he cares about—his friends, his girlfriend—and he finds joy in playing soccer, running cross country, and relaxing with a good video game when life slows down for a moment. Isaiah is currently in foster care and is preparing to step into independent living. This is a big transition, but he’s facing it with so much courage, maturity, and hope for his future. What stands out most about Isaiah is the warmth he brings to every room. He’s outgoing, determined, and truly a joy to be around. He has worked hard for everything he has, and he continues to move forward with a quiet strength that inspires everyone who knows him.
