Rafiq, 10 years old, NJ | 13 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Rafiq has a warm heart, and even though he feels some anxiety around other kids, he genuinely enjoys being around his peers and joining in group activities. He lights up with excitement over new clothes, especially fresh textures and vibrant colors that catch his eye. He has developmental delays and attends a special school, but he approaches learning with real enjoyment.

This shopping trip would give Rafiq a chance to meet his sensory and physical needs while getting to pick out clothes that genuinely excite him. New textures and colors help him self regulate, making this as much a practical tool as it is a treat. Wearing trendy, stylish pieces he picked out himself would give Rafiq a real sense of pride and confidence.
