Jamari, 16 years old, OH | NEEDED BY 08/07

Wish submitted by:

Jamari is a bright and resilient young man who enjoys listening to Anna Mae and has a growing interest in technology. Jamari is working hard toward his future goals and hopes to be accepted into a career center where he can pursue his dream of becoming a computer technician. Jamari has experienced significant loss and instability. He was previously in adoptive care with his aunt, who sadly became ill and passed away. Following this loss, his mother was unable to care for him, and although his father initially stepped in, Jamari was left in the care of others. He is now placed in a new foster home and is working toward finding stability and a place he can truly call home. He is currently supported through an Individualized Education Program (IEP) and is making progress in school. Jamari has faced challenges with depression but is actively engaged in therapy and working toward healing, growth, and building a positive future. Despite everything he has been through, Jamari remains hopeful, determined, and motivated to create a better path for himself.

As Jamari prepares for another school year, he is hoping for several new shirts and undershirts to complete his school wardrobe. Having enough clothing for the school week will help him arrive each day feeling comfortable, confident, and ready to learn. This gift will help ease financial stress for his family while ensuring Jamari has the essentials he needs to start the school year on a positive note.
