Joe is a determined and resilient young man of Black and Hispanic descent who refuses to let obstacles stand in his way. Having spent many years in foster care, he has developed a profound sense of purpose and compassion that fuels his dream of becoming a social worker. Joe's experiences have inspired him to support others and break cycles of instability, with the ultimate goal of creating a stable, successful life where homelessness is never an option. Despite the challenges life has thrown at him, Joe maintains a positive outlook. His strong faith in God, deep love for his family, and kindness towards others shape his character. He enjoys playing sports, embracing the outdoors, and finding moments of relaxation in his personal space. Intelligent, athletic, and grounded, Joe is determined to grow into the future he envisions, ready to overcome any barriers in his path.

Joe knows that education is essential for achieving his goals, and virtual classes play a big role in that. However, not having a laptop is a significant barrier for him. With the right tools, like a dependable laptop, he can fully participate in school and stay on track. Despite the challenges of growing up in foster care, Joe remains positive and focused on his dream of becoming a social worker to help others in similar situations. He is motivated and determined, but his lack of a laptop makes it harder to move forward. Providing him with a laptop would help remove this obstacle and allow him to succeed in school and beyond!
