Korbin, 17 years old, MO | 1 DAY WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Korbin came into care by going to the sheriff's office himself to ask for help. He and his mom were homeless, and he had missed a year of school. Korbin shared that he and his mom had been couch surfing; wherever they stayed, the hosts would eventually tire of them and ask them to leave. They had a tent to stay in as well. Korbin's mom has issues with drugs whenever she can obtain them. Korbin has now been in care for a year and six months, during which time his mom has only contacted him by phone. He is back in school and receiving good care. Korbin has big goals for his future and aspires to become a social worker. He wants to help kids like him because he understands their struggles. Korbin is a very loving child, and anyone would be lucky to know him. Korbin plans to go to the service because he knows that is he is 18 he needs to be out of the area. He plans to sign up when he is 18 and gets college paid for.

Korbin would love some skateboard stickers before he heads off to military service. He has a strong support system cheering him on as he begins this exciting new chapter in his life. Korbin loves skateboarding and plans to spend his free time skating whenever he can after boot camp. He is always ready to take on new challenges and works hard to reach his goals. Skateboarding has been a big part of his life, and he dreams of being like Tony Hawk someday. These stickers would be a fun way for Korbin to express his passion for skateboarding and carry a reminder of something he loves as he starts this new adventure.
