Addyn, 10 years old, OR | 42 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Addyn is a resilient and thoughtful young person who is currently in a kinship placement with his aunt, alongside his siblings. After entering foster care due to his parents being arrested, Addyn has faced significant changes in a short period of time. Adjusting to a new environment, new routines, and the emotional weight of separation has not been easy for him. He has experienced moments of uncertainty and struggle as he navigates this transition, but having his siblings by his side has provided him with a sense of comfort and connection during a difficult time. Despite these challenges, Addyn continues to show strength and determination. One of his greatest passions is basketball—he loves being on the court, practicing his skills, and staying active. Basketball is more than just a game for Addyn; it is an outlet, a source of joy, and a place where he can focus, grow, and dream. He aspires to one day play in the NBA, and this dream motivates him to keep pushing forward even when things feel hard. With continued support, stability, and encouragement, Addyn has the potential to thrive and turn his passion into purpose.

Addyn is hoping for a Fortnite gift card, something that would bring him a lot of excitement and joy. Playing Fortnite is one of his favorite ways to relax, have fun, and connect with others. A gift card would allow him to choose in-game items, skins, or upgrades that make the experience feel more personal and enjoyable. It’s a simple wish that would go a long way in giving him something fun to look forward to and a chance to express himself in a game he truly enjoys.
