Tavaris, 17 years old, NJ |

Wish submitted by:

Tavaris is a loving and helpful young man who has made great strides to improve himself since reuniting with his grandmother. Although he was very quiet for a while, he is also smart and courageous, especially after the loss of his mother. He plans to become a mechanic and own his own shop after high school. In addition to his career goals, he plays basketball and aims to coach future players.

Tavaris would like to receive sports gear from Dick's for Christmas. He wishes for items that would help him in various ways. This year may be particularly challenging for him, but his desire to make his late Grandmom proud through sports keeps him motivated. Despite the many recent changes in his life, he remains positive and focused on performing well on the court.
