Jhordyn, 17 years old, TX | NEEDED BY 09/05

Wish submitted by:

Jhordyn is a sweet young lady with a passion for running track and watching Disney movies. Recently, she relocated to Texas, where she encountered some challenges as she tried to settle into her new environment. Living in a single-parent household has also posed difficulties for her, particularly with her dad’s absence. Despite these challenges, Jhordyn and her family are receiving support from The Homes For Children, which has been a source of strength for them.

Jhordyn has had knee problems ever since another basketball player ran her over during a game. She is now in college, and the amount of walking it takes to get to her classes leaves her knee in pain and swollen at the end of the day. Despite this challenge, she continues to push herself to keep up with her busy schedule and remain committed to her education. A scooter would make a huge difference in her daily life, allowing her to get around campus much quicker without putting pressure on her injured knee. It would not only help ease her physical pain but also give her the independence and mobility she needs to thrive in her new environment. College life is already full of challenges, and this small but impactful tool would take away one of her biggest daily struggles. With this scooter, Jhordyn could focus more on her studies and less on the pain that slows her down.
