Cooper, 18 years old, ME | NEEDED BY 05/01

Wish submitted by:

Cooper recently moved into a residential foster care placement. He loves music, specifically from the 1980s. Cooper enjoys exploring nature, playing cards, and being around others. Living in foster care has been tough for Cooper, and he has been in and out of crisis several times, but he continues to maintain a positive attitude. He aspires to be a heart surgeon someday. Cooper likes to share his humor with the world through his silly jokes. He is a kind-hearted and thoughtful child!

Cooper's biological mother has reentered his life after a decade, and he is so excited! As he approaches his graduation, he dreams of having her in the audience when he walks across the stage. However, she would need to make the long drive from North Carolina to Maine to be there. Cooper is reaching out for help to make this dream a reality by requesting gas gift cards to assist with her travel. This will help ensure that Cooper's mom is there to celebrate this special milestone with him. This will make his graduation memorable! This wish was divided up so that Cooper's mom can get there and back! This is wish 1 of 2.
