Leo, 9 years old, CA | NEEDED BY 05/29

Wish submitted by:

Leo is a very social and kind boy. He loves Dog Man and Sonic, as well as playing video games and watching shows. He most recently joined a Cub Scouts troop and went on a fun camping trip with his father. At one point, his and his sister's safety and well-being were put at risk by his mother, leading to the involvement of the Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS). Leo currently lives with his father and older sister. Despite these difficulties, Leo remains his kind and caring self, recently sharing that he received not only a Student of the Month award but also a Thanksgiving Spirit award for being a kind and helpful peer at school. These are just some things that highlight Leo's resilience during challenging times.

Leo is doing well in school and stays positive and cheerful despite DCF involvement. He is very active and enjoys spending time with his mom at the park. During these visits, he especially loves playing soccer, and he has even joined a youth team. These cleats would help him get ready for practices and games and support him as he continues to grow his love for soccer.
