Julian is a foster youth who loves learning and is especially enthusiastic about science, often enjoying hands-on experiments and exploring how things work. He has a vivid imagination and a curious mind, always asking questions and wanting to understand the world around him. Julian dreams of becoming an astronaut when he grows up, inspired by his fascination with space and planets. Supporting his love for learning and curiosity can help him build confidence, develop problem-solving skills, and pursue his big dreams.

Julian needs a new pair of shoes that are comfortable and suitable for school. He enjoys footwear that offers a supportive, cushioned fit, allowing him to stay active throughout the day—whether he’s running during recess or participating in physical activities. Since his school has a dress code that doesn’t permit colorful shoes, Julian prefers neutral colors that are both stylish and appropriate. Having a pair of Nike shoes would not only keep him comfortable but also help him feel confident and ready to focus on learning and play.
