Cooper, 9 years old, NJ | NEEDED BY 06/13

Wish submitted by:

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.

After a long and challenging school year, Cooper is ready for some well-deserved summer fun! He dreams of a trip to Urban Air, where he can bounce, jump, and laugh alongside his siblings. Cooper has worked hard and overcome tough times, and this special outing would give him the chance to let loose, have fun, and simply be a kid. Sharing this experience with his siblings would not only bring joy but also help strengthen their bond—something that is especially important for children who have experienced trauma. Movement and connection are healing, and a day at Urban Air would mean the world to Cooper and his family.
