Grace Retreat Foster Care and Adoption Services

Raiden is a bright and thoughtful young man who has spent a few years in foster care due to neglect and his parents' substance abuse. He was recently placed with a kinship provider who is working hard to meet his essential needs. Despite the challenges he’s faced, Raiden continues to lean into the things he loves most. He enjoys playing video games, building with Legos, and getting lost in strategy and adventure games. Raiden also plays the trombone, and music has become a meaningful creative outlet for him. Raiden is resilient, imaginative, and full of potential.

Raiden has just joined a kinship placement, and his caregiver is working to meet his essential needs. A gift card would allow Raiden to pick out items that make his room feel more like his own—things such as décor, bedding, or small items he enjoys. Giving him the chance to personalize his space would provide comfort and help him feel more grounded and in control after the many changes he’s experienced.
