Zacheriah, 7 years old, OR

Wish submitted by:

Zacheriah is a fun and imaginative boy who loves to make people laugh. Swimming is one of his favorite things to do—he enjoys splashing around in the pool and practicing his kicks. He also has a blast playing video games, especially racing and adventure ones, where he can solve puzzles and have fun with friends. Zacheriah is social and loves being with his cousins and pals. They play silly games, build forts, and create cool worlds with their toys. He’s full of energy and curiosity, always asking questions and looking for new adventures. While he’s learning to handle big feelings when things don’t go as planned, he’s growing every day with the help of his loving family. Zacheriah brings joy and playfulness wherever he goes!

Zacheriah is hoping for a new pair of tennis shoes to wear to school and during gym class. Currently, the only shoes that fit him are Crocs, which are not suitable for physical activity or colder weather. He has outgrown his previous sneakers and lacks an appropriate replacement. This situation has begun to affect his feelings about going to school, as he feels uncomfortable and self-conscious without proper footwear. A supportive and well-fitting pair of shoes would help him feel more confident, stay warm, and safely participate in school activities.
