NJ DCFS - Essex County

Omavi is a remarkable young man who earns respect through his quiet strength and determination. Living in a group home, he navigates the challenges of foster care while working hard to finish high school, especially drawn to psychology and digital media. He loves video games like The Last of Us and Spider-Man, finding inspiration in their stories of resilience, and he channels his creativity into making beats and exploring sneaker culture. Style, music, and journaling help him express his identity and reflect on life. Loyal and thoughtful, Omavi notices when others are struggling and offers support without fanfare. He thrives with autonomy, creative outlets, and mentorship that respects his voice—he’s not just surviving, he’s building a life, and anyone who walks alongside him sees just how phenomenal he is.

Omavi is asking for four sweaters to help him look polished and professional during interviews without needing an expensive suit. Wearing them boosts his confidence and helps employers take him seriously, while building a versatile wardrobe that supports financial responsibility. As he transitions into adulthood, these sweaters provide practical, stress-free clothing for multiple settings.
