Wish submitted by:

Jo Jo is a great young man who lives with his parents. They moved here from Jamaica and are struggling to make ends meet. Jo Jo faces challenges because he has autism and other disabilities. He finds reading and math tough but is working hard to learn important everyday skills. Right now, he's trying to master things like cleaning, getting dressed, and taking care of himself. He is also learning how to shop by himself, cross streets safely, and pick the right clothes for different weather. His behavior therapist says he is sweet, loving, and very determined to do his best. Jo Jo loves Disney, especially Mickey and Minnie Mouse, and enjoys watching "Mickey Mouse Clubhouse" on YouTube. Despite the challenges he faces, his story shows hope and strength as he works to grow and thrive in life.

JoJo is an autistic child who faces some difficulties in daily life, so having a structured and engaging environment is really important for him. On days when he's feeling bored, a projector for his bedroom could help him stay calm and relaxed. It would create a soothing environment where he can explore his interests in a gentle way. Right now, JoJo's family is having financial struggles, making it hard for them to afford things that would help him. A projector could provide not just entertainment, but also inspire his creativity and help him feel safe as he explores.
