Anthony, 12 years old, MO | 9 DAYS WAITING |

Central Missouri Foster Care & Adoption Association

Anthony is a dedicated fisherman who thrives at the river's edge, always with a pole in hand. When he’s not casting lines, he’s eager to share stories about his latest catch. Alongside his passion for fishing, Anthony is also doing remarkably well in school, with his grades improving significantly since moving into a loving foster home. His joyful spirit shines through his love for laughter, and he enjoys making others smile just as much as he finds joy in his fishing adventures.

Anthony wishes for a tablet this Christmas because it would give him a fun and helpful way to learn, play, and stay connected. He loves exploring new things, and a tablet would let him watch educational videos, read books, and work on school projects more easily. It would also give him a calm and enjoyable way to relax by drawing, playing games, or listening to music. The holidays can be tough for Anthony, and having his own tablet would make Christmas feel extra special. He hasn’t always had the chance to choose something big for himself, so receiving a tablet would give him a sense of pride and excitement. It would also give him something stable and comforting, something he knows will be there for him no matter where he is.
