HOLIDAY WISH

A Go Pro with a complete accessory pack for Chris who loves adventure

Posted Dec 12, 2022
At nearly 6 and a half feet tall, Chris is hard to miss in a crowd. Now, try to imagine what he looks like when he is doing amazing acrobatic feats - whether on a bike or a snowboard or a skateboard. Like most adolescents, Chris would love to record and share his coolest experiences and athletic accomplishments. This Go Pro kit would bring Chris immense joy this holiday season - allowing him to feel more like a typical fun-loving kid. Sharing in technology is a valuable way for Chris to connect, especially with his younger brother who is not living near him. Chris would be super grateful to have this amazing Go Pro Kit to bring his adventures to life!

Chris is 20 years old and lives in CA

Chris is a super smart young man who has overcome great barriers to make his way to a 4-year university. Chris is hoping to become a scientist after earning his bachelor of science degree in Chemistry. Initially somewhat shy, Chris is truly a gentle giant (he is 6' 5"!). He is incredibly kind, warm, and empathic. He cares greatly for his friends and the other youth who participate in our foster care support program. Chris is very new to our campus and to our program, but has already made an impression on us all as someone who is a super wonderful and generous community member.

"Dear Donor, My name is Chris and I am writing to say thank you so much for making my wish for a go pro come true. I cannot believe that someone out there actually granted my wish. I never thought this was possible. I am so glad to be a college student and to have support from people like you. I am going to be able to make lots of videos of my college activities and the friends I am going to make over the next few years. Thank you for making my Christmas really special this year. Thank you, Chris"
