Julian (Tobi), 14 years old, NE | NEEDED BY 08/15

Wish submitted by:

Julian has been staying with his aunt. Before this, he was placed in a different kinship foster home. Julian was removed from his mother's care due to severe neglect, substance abuse, and domestic violence. He truly enjoys art, gaming, and watching YouTube, and he loves creating characters through his artwork. Julian dreams of living in New York City one day. He is a resilient young man who is not afraid to speak his mind and often shows his playful side.

Julian is hoping to receive an Xbox for his birthday. He used to have a gaming console, but he left it at his biological mother's house, and he really misses it. Having an Xbox would give him something fun to do on his days off from school and when the weather isn’t great. Sometimes, he struggles a bit with his mental health, and playing games or listening to music in his room is one of the ways he copes. It helps him relax and stay distracted during tough times. Getting this gaming console for his birthday will definitely lift his spirits!
