Obed, 10 years old, NJ | NEEDED BY 06/11

Wish submitted by:

Obed is a very bright boy who has autism and a remarkable talent for numbers. He is an exceptional math wizard and takes great pride in his math and map-reading abilities. His foster mom says she has never gotten lost while driving with Obed; he always corrects her if she misses a turn. He enjoys spending time with his cousins and friends and is always on the lookout for fun activities. Obed likes riding his bike, jumping on the trampoline, reading to his siblings, and playing gaga ball.

Obed's first football season is approaching, and he would love to have a duffel bag to carry all his equipment. He has always wanted to play but never had the rides, money, or support. His mom is finally trying to make it all happen for him this year, but money is tight. Granting this wish would be so helpful to Obed and his mom.
