Zion, 10 years old, OR | 4 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Zion was placed with his brother at their grandmother’s home. His father is currently struggling with addiction and is unable to provide care for him and his sibling. Zion is very active and energetic, often on the go throughout the day. He has a strong interest in sports, especially soccer, and would benefit from opportunities to further engage in physical activity. He also enjoys gaming, including playing Roblox and car racing games. Zion’s energy and interests suggest that he thrives when he has structured, engaging activities.

When Zion was placed with his grandmother, he arrived without any toys. He has expressed that he would like an Amazon gift card so he can choose his own toys to play with. This would give him the opportunity to make his own choices and practice budgeting skills while selecting items that interest him. An Amazon gift card would also help Zion stay engaged and occupied, especially given his high energy level and active nature. When asked about specific toys he might want, he shared that he would prefer a gift card so he can personally pick out items that he likes.
