A smart basketball for Holland to master her hoop skills

Holland, 10 years old, MO

Wish submitted by:

Live 2 Give Hope

Holland was born with meth and marijuana in her system. Her foster family took her in, and she has learned, grown, and thrived in their care. She has a heart of gold and is a friend to everyone. Always eager to help, she loves spending time with her family. Sweet and outgoing, Holland is always looking to make new friends wherever she goes. Despite the challenges she has faced in her short life, she continues to prove to everyone that she is strong and resilient.

Holland absolutely loves basketball and dreams of playing professionally one day. Even though her family has a membership at a local YMCA, it's quite a drive for them, especially with all her siblings. She really wishes she could practice basketball all day, every day. Having a basketball with an app would allow her to practice for her games and have a great way to unwind when things get tough. Holland also loves playing with her siblings, and this special basketball would let her have fun with them while also being able to practice on her own. It's like having her own private coach right at her fingertips!
