Wish submitted by:

Venky is an incredible kid! As the oldest of four siblings, he has taken on the role of a father figure and has done an amazing job despite their unfortunate circumstances. Venky and his siblings entered foster care due to issues of parental neglect. Throughout this challenging time, Venky has worked hard to protect his younger siblings from many hardships. Currently, they are separated into two foster homes, which has been tough for them. The girls are living with one family member, while Venky and his brother are with another. Venky loves to wrestle and dreams of attending Rutgers University someday!

Venky is passionate about wrestling, and this year he wants to participate in training sessions. An 8-week program will not only help him become stronger but also enhance his wrestling skills. For Venky, wrestling serves as a vital outlet for many of the challenges he faces in life. Engaging in this program is exactly what he needs to stay motivated and focused! With the support of his coaches and the camaraderie of fellow wrestlers, Venky believes this journey will not only build his physical strength but also foster determination in all aspects of his life.
