Central Missouri Foster Care & Adoption Association

Hunter is a resilient and determined teen who has faced a challenging foster care journey with strength and courage. He is autistic, and while life hasn’t always been easy, Hunter continues to show perseverance and a bright spirit. He finds comfort and joy in routines, familiar interests, and activities that help him feel calm and free. One of Hunter’s favorite things to do is ride his bike and spend time outdoors. Being outside helps him relax, clear his mind, and feel independent. He also loves cheering on the Kansas City Chiefs and is a huge fan of Travis Kelce. One of his biggest dreams is to meet Travis Kelce someday, a goal that brings him excitement and hope.

Hunter wishes for a Chromebook because it would help him succeed in school and feel more confident with his learning. Schoolwork is increasingly online, and having his own Chromebook would give him reliable access to assignments, lessons, and educational tools. For Hunter, having one consistent device would make learning feel more organized and less stressful. As an autistic student, structure and routine are important to Hunter, and a Chromebook would allow him to complete schoolwork in a familiar, predictable way. It would also support accommodations like typing instead of writing, using learning apps, and working at his own pace. Having his own device would help him stay focused and independent.
