The Friends of Foster Care

Xavier is an adventurous boy with a passion for taking things apart and figuring out how they work, whether he’s repairing an old remote control or building intricate LEGO designs. He loves basketball, playing whenever he can and knowing stats about half the NBA. After moving through several foster placements, he can be tough or guarded at first, but he quickly warms up and has a great sense of humor. Having faced more change than most kids his age, Xavier is eager for a stable home where he can be the curious, funny kid he truly is, deserving a place to put down roots and people who will support him.

Xavier's the kind of kid who's always in motion, and a scooter would give him a fast, fun way to burn off energy and explore his neighborhood on his own terms. Whether he's racing around with friends after school or just cruising for the fun of it, having his own set of wheels would give him a taste of independence and pure kid-fun that isn't tied to anything complicated or heavy. For a boy who's had to adjust to so many new places, something this simple and exciting can be a great way to feel more at home wherever he lands. Your gift would give Xavier an easy dose of freedom and joy.
