Yankees blanket for Cooper to keep warm while watching games

Cooper, 8 years old

Wish submitted by:

NJ DCFS - Ocean County

Cooper has been working hard in school to catch up. Before entering foster care, school was not a priority for him. Now, he has developed a love of reading and rides his bike to the library every week to find new books. He has also discovered a passion for sports and has been playing soccer and baseball. A natural athlete, he quickly picks up the games. His coaches and teachers note that he always shows up with a smile and has a strong desire to learn.

Cooper's first Yankee game ignited a lifelong passion. He and his foster mom spent the entire season together, watching every game. The cozy couch, a warm blanket, and Cooper decked out in his Yankee gear became their cherished ritual. He'd snuggle under the blanket, completely immersed in the game, a picture of pure joy. A Yankee-themed blanket is the only thing missing to make these special moments even more perfect. Imagine the warmth and comfort of a soft, team-colored blanket adding to their already strong bond. It would be a tangible symbol of their shared love for the Yankees and a wonderful way to strengthen their connection further. A Yankee blanket would complete their game-day experience and provide Cooper with a comforting, familiar object that reinforces his positive attachment with his foster mom. It would be a cherished keepsake, representing their special time together.
