Ron is a resilient young person who, along with his three siblings, entered foster care after their parents were incarcerated. Despite the challenges, Ron has become a protector and leader for his siblings, often prioritizing their needs. A natural athlete, Ron enjoys playing basketball and football, using sports as a way to clear his mind and manage stress. He also loves being outdoors, whether it’s running with his siblings or simply enjoying nature. Through his passion for sports, Ron not only faces his own challenges but also sets an example for his siblings, showing them the importance of self-care and supporting each other in tough times.

Ron needs assistance with travel this holiday season. This support would help cover transportation costs, making it possible for him to safely attend New Year's Eve gatherings. During this time of year, staying connected is especially important. Ron would be grateful for the opportunity to spend time with his family, relax, and feel supported throughout his journey, allowing him moments to unwind.
