Joaquin is an energetic and athletic young boy in foster care who enjoys staying active through basketball and baseball. He is excited to start at a new school and looks forward to making new friends and becoming part of his school community. Joaquin has a friendly, kind, and outgoing personality that helps him connect easily with others. He enjoys working as part of a team, has a positive attitude, and is eager to build meaningful friendships while creating new memories in this next chapter of his life.

Joaquin is wishing for a gift card so he can shop for new school clothes as he prepares for the upcoming school year. He would love to pick out graphic T-shirts and a few pairs of jeans that match his style. One of his favorite parts of shopping is visiting the store and choosing his own clothes, which helps him express his personality and build confidence. His favorite colors are green and orange, and he looks forward to finding outfits that will help him feel comfortable and excited as he starts at his new school.
