Wish submitted by:

Gavin is a wonderful young man. Right now, he and his sister are living with a family friend while their parents are being detained. They’ve been going through a tough time, relying on this friend who doesn’t have a lot of money. Gavin has some challenges, including a learning disability, autism, and diabetes, but he has a gentle and joyful spirit. He might be shy at first, but once you get to know him, his loving and playful side shines through. Gavin loves spending time with his family and enjoys activities like building with blocks, playing soccer, and working with magnetic toys and educational games. These things help him be creative and learn while having fun. His story is one of strength and hope.

Gavin and his sister will soon be reunited with their parents in Venezuela, and they need assistance in purchasing shorts that will help them feel comfortable and confident as they start this new chapter in their lives. Gavin is especially eager to see his dad again, as he values the strong bond they share. Having the right shorts will keep him cool in the warm weather.
