Oliver, 13 years old, CA

Wish submitted by:

Oliver loves basketball and video games, balancing outdoor activities and indoor hobbies, a value encouraged by his foster family. He hopes to start boxing or martial arts. Currently, in the Permanency Planning phase of foster care, he looks forward to potentially reuniting with family in the Philippines.

Having family far away, a cell phone would provide Oliver with the security and comfort of staying in touch. With every call and text strengthening his bond with loved ones in the Philippines, and the feeling supported from a distance, Oliver will be able to continue building lasting relationships here and there.
