Wish submitted by:

Jaime is a bright and active young man who is currently in foster care. He loves spending time outdoors, especially fishing, which helps him relax and feel connected to nature. He’s hoping his new school has a fishing team so he can continue his passion and make friends who share his interests. Besides fishing, Jaime enjoys all kinds of sports. He’s competitive and always ready for a challenge. Being outdoors gives him a sense of freedom, which is really important during this big change in his life. School matters to Jaime too. He works hard and wants to keep up with his studies, even though adjusting to his new situation has been tough. He misses his old friends and the routines he was used to, and he dreams of moving back home one day to be with the people and places he loves. Despite the challenges he faces, Jaime remains strong and resilient. With the right support and opportunities to stay active and connected, he has the potential to thrive.

For his birthday this year, Jaime wants to have a special dinner with his friends and family to celebrate. He enjoys spending time with the people he cares about and hopes for a fun evening filled with good food, laughter, and connection. His favorite dish, chicken tenders, would make the night even better! With the changes that come from being in foster care, these gatherings are important for Jaime to create positive memories and feel supported.
