Max, 11 years old, KS | NEEDED BY 06/26

Wish submitted by:

Max marches to the beat of his own drum and isn't afraid to be different. He thinks outside the box, asks unusual or bizarre questions, wears Christmas sweaters on Halloween, and occasionally leaves people scratching their heads. He is truly special. Max has a passion for books, animals, gaming, music, and a genuine love for pizza! At times, he feels sad about his younger sibling getting the attention, his dad not being part of his life, and not liking his mom's boyfriend, yet he always tries to make the best of every situation. When he enters school in the mornings with his hoodie pulled over his head, he's probably dealing with something that he doesn't like. Usually, all it takes is a kind word and some appreciation to bring him back to a better state.

There is no better feeling than being celebrated on your birthday! This wish will provide Max with an extra surprise to open on their special day. Although their celebrations may look different this year, it will remind them that they are valued and remembered on this important occasion!
