John, 5 years old, NC

Wish submitted by:

John is new to the foster care system and is currently placed with his younger brother, but he has an older brother whom he previously lived with and looks up to. He wishes to keep in touch with his oldest brother through a tablet. Additionally, it has been identified that John is behind in preparing for kindergarten, and a tablet would help him learn his academic skills in a creative manner. Please help John get a tablet to maintain his connection with his brother and support his developmental progress.

John has been eagerly anticipating the opportunity to receive a tablet, which he believes will greatly enhance his ability to stay connected with his family and friends. With this device, he envisions being able to video chat with loved ones who live far away, share moments in real-time, and create a stronger bond despite the physical distance. Additionally, John sees the tablet as a valuable tool for his academic growth. He plans to utilize various educational apps, access online resources, and participate in virtual study groups, all of which he hopes will enrich his learning experience and help him excel in his studies.
