Ian, 15 years old, MO | 19 DAYS WAITING | NEEDED BY 07/31

Wish submitted by:

Ian is a wonderful young man who is currently in foster care and works hard to make the most of every opportunity. He is enrolled in dual-credit college courses while still in high school and consistently earns excellent grades through his dedication and determination. Ian has a love of reading and enjoys expanding his knowledge both inside and outside the classroom. He is also actively involved in several school clubs, where he builds friendships, develops leadership skills, and stays engaged in his school community. Ian's commitment to his education and personal growth reflects his bright future and strong character.

Ian has recently entered care and has moved to a new school district. He was a member of his previous school's football team and absolutely loves playing the sport. Unfortunately, the new school district requires players to provide their own helmets. Ian would be devastated if the thing that prevents him from playing is the lack of proper equipment. He is a good kid who works hard and has dedicated a lot of time and effort to this sport. Granting a wish like this would mean the world to Ian, and he would be incredibly grateful.
