A super nice coat for Raf who has a passion for fashion

Posted Feb 14, 2025
Raf has been eyeing a Retro North Face winter coat for a while. To him, it’s more than just a way to stay warm—it represents his confidence and identity. Growing up in foster care, he often felt invisible, blending into the background. Raf believes that wearing a stylish coat would help him stand out and feel empowered, showing the world who he really is. This coat would not only keep him warm but also remind him that he is valuable and deserves to feel proud of himself, just like every foster child.

Raf is 17 years old and lives in NY

Raf’s life has been a series of foster homes, each offering a fresh start yet reminding him of his lack of control. The basketball court became his sanctuary, where he pours his heart into the game, using it as an escape from uncertainty. Driven by a desire to help others, his dream of becoming a nurse symbolizes the care he often missed. Even in tough moments, he shows compassion, rushing to support teammates and offering a helping hand to those in need. Raf believes his past does not define his future. His remarkable resilience allows him to transform setbacks into motivation, and his empathy for others has made him a beacon of hope for those around him.
