Marksboro Community ChurchLyric is a vibrant, resilient young boy who has shown incredible strength while navigating multiple placements since entering foster care. While adjusting to new homes and environments has been challenging, sports have become his ultimate outlet to connect, heal, and express his determination. Whether he is running cross country or competing in football and basketball, Lyric pours his heart into every game, drawing inspiration from athletes like Steph Curry. His foster parents are dedicated to helping him build healthy coping skills and confidence both on the field and in the classroom. With his natural energy and persevering spirit, Lyric continues to push through obstacles as he builds a foundation for a brighter future.
Lyric is hoping for his own pair of bowling shoes so he can participate in New Jersey’s Kids Bowl Free program this summer. Although bowling itself is free, the cost of renting shoes each time can make it difficult for him to attend regularly. Having his own pair would eliminate that barrier and let him enjoy a fun, active experience with ease.

You have helped remove a barrier and opened the door to fun, activity, and positive experiences. For a child in foster care, having something that belongs just to them can be incredibly meaningful.
