Lucas, 9 years old, PA | NEEDED BY 07/17

Wish submitted by:

Lucas entered foster care at the age of 3 after experiencing instability during his first three years with family. Shortly thereafter, he was diagnosed with autism and is considered non-verbal. Despite this, he is incredibly intelligent, playful, and has a great love for food! His favorite activities include jumping, spinning, and watching his siblings play. Lucas was adopted into a large family that includes many children with special needs.

Lucas loves the pool and would spend all day swimming if his adoptive mom would let him. He has a hard time with drying off after swimming and does not like using a regular towel. A hooded poncho towel would make this transition easier for him and help reduce the stress of getting out of the pool. It would keep him warm and comfortable while also making cleanup simpler. He would also enjoy being able to match with his siblings, which would make pool time even more fun for him.
