Matthew, 20 years old, VA

Wish submitted by:

Matthew is an amazing young man, who is really into sports. Despite facing some challenges in foster care, his love for athletics has helped him stay motivated and focused on his goals. It hasn't been easy for Matthew, though -- being removed from his old school and friends has been tough. But he's a smart guy, and he's determined to graduate early and pursue his dream of joining the military and playing football for them.

Matthew attends ROTC classes and has to get up very early for drills. Sometimes, the weather is very cool in the morning, and Matthew only likes to wear a hoodie to school. Matthew gets a ride to and from school, but he would really like a new hoodie to add to his collection.
