Jones, 18 years old, GA

Wish submitted by:

Jones is defying the odds. He is not only running cross country for his university but also maintaining a B average in all his classes. Despite facing several years in foster care, he has truly thrived and successfully met his personal goals. He has a strong support network of family and friends who have encouraged him to pursue his dreams.

Jones is preparing to enter his spring and summer training, and new equipment will help him have a successful season next year. Getting a pair of running shoes will provide Jones with the physical and emotional support he needs as he pursues his goals in post-secondary education and collegiate sports.
