JoJo, 24 years old, FL

Wish submitted by:

JoJo entered the foster care system years ago following the death of his father and his mother's inability to manage on her own. Tragically, two years after entering the system, his mother also passed away, leaving him without any family support. He found himself lingering in a foster home. During this time, JoJo discovered his passion for football and dreamt of playing in the NFL. His coach, originally unaware of JoJo's situation in foster care, offered him the opportunity to move in with him, his wife, and their two sons. This transition allowed JoJo to leave his foster placement and become part of a family. He gained access to a gym where he could train alongside his coach, attracting the attention of football scouts. Additionally, he found both a mentor and a father figure in his coach.

Jojo has recently transitioned out of his support program, and with that change, his monthly stipend has come to an end. Fortunately, he has secured a job at Walmart; however, the hours and pay are insufficient to meet his basic needs. As he navigates this challenging period, Jojo is in urgent need of essential items such as t-shirts, socks, and an electronic shaving kit. Each of these items can easily be found on Amazon, but he faces difficulty affording them. Finding support for these necessities will greatly help him during this crucial time in his life. This request has been split into two wishes to allow for a successful shopping trip. This is wish 1 of 2.
