Matthew, 11 years old

Wish submitted by:

Matthew is clever and a good problem-solver. He likes to put things together and take things apart to see how they operate. He is helpful and a hard worker. He wants to learn how to play an instrument such as a guitar or piano. He loves going to the beach and lake with his foster family. He is very close to his 4 siblings, who he lives with, and wants to learn how to build close friendships.

Matthew is really into survival in the wilderness. He even went to a survival summer camp this past year. He has specially asked for a survival radio that has a hand crank, which he found on Amazon. He loves to go on hikes, camping, and being in the woods. He wants to experience and pretend like he has to use this to "survival" in the woods (he never goes far!).
