Zion, 9 years old, OR | NEEDED BY 06/26

Wish submitted by:

Zion is lively and brings energy to the field when he plays football or soccer. Whether he’s throwing the ball around in the backyard or practicing at the park, he loves being active and having fun. Sports help him burn off energy and feel good about himself while making friends. He's naturally athletic and works hard to improve his skills. As the oldest sibling, Zion feels a strong responsibility to take care of his younger brothers and sisters. His desire to protect them comes from his experiences growing up, which included some tough times before being adopted by his older cousin and their partner. Even though his new home is loving and stable, Zion sometimes struggles to relax, feeling like he always has to be strong. He’s learning that it’s okay to ask for help, share his feelings, and trust others to support him.

Zion is asking for a pair of Nike slides to wear this summer, especially for days at the lake and enjoying the warm weather. A comfortable pair of slides would be perfect for easy summer fun, whether walking by the water, playing outside, or spending time with family and friends. This simple item would help him stay comfortable and ready for all the summer adventures ahead.
