Jamari, 16 years old, OH

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.

Jamari is hoping for a supply of personal hygiene items to help him start the school year feeling clean, confident, and prepared each day. Everyday essentials such as shampoo, body wash, deodorant, toothpaste, and other hygiene products are important for both health and self-confidence. Providing these necessities will help Jamari focus on learning while giving him the confidence that comes from feeling his best.
