Anthony, 28 years old, NC

Wish submitted by:

Anthony is a cheerful young man who has experienced trauma during his time in foster care. He was moved frequently throughout his childhood and has been on his own since aging out of the system. Recently, he graduated from boot camp and joined the Army, feeling a sense of relief at having completed the rigorous training. Anthony looks forward to attending college one day and starting a family of his own. He believes he has had a slow start in life and simply needs a bit of support and encouragement to move forward.

Anthony wishes to have a sports jacket because he has never dressed up for special occasions. He plans to wear it to church when he can attend, as well as to other important events. Having a sports jacket will help him look sharp and adopt a new style.
