Damien, 16 years old

Wish submitted by:

Damien has been in foster care for a few years, and he truly brings life to the household with his jokes and ability to make everyone laugh. He is very caring and always willing to help others. Despite facing various challenges in his life, Damien has adapted well to his current placement and maintains a positive attitude. In addition to his cheerful nature, Damien enjoys playing video games, which he uses as a way to connect with his foster siblings.

Damien has had his eye on a new bike for a long time. He has even written a presentation showing the benefits of riding a bike, including the promotion of physical exercise, and aiding in his overall health and gross motor skills. Allowing Damien the independence offered by a bike to explore and travel short distances will promote healthier coping mechanisms and allow him to socialize with his friends and other children in his neighborhood.
