Andrew, 17 years old, PA | NEEDED BY 09/18

Wish submitted by:

Andrew is an amazing teenager who loves music, school, and working hard. He entered foster care with his younger brother and has lived in different homes before finding a supportive pre-adoptive placement. As a barista, he enjoys learning about coffee flavors and working with his team. Andrew dreams of pursuing a career in the biomed or biotech industry and is considering graduate studies in entomology as he applies to various universities. While he has been a great caretaker for his brother, he is now enjoying the chance to explore his interests and be a kid in a nurturing environment.

Andrew is really excited to be starting at a new high school! Since it is a Catholic school, he has to wear a uniform. The one area where he can still showcase his style and express his personality is through his shoes. He would love to get a pair of sturdy and comfortable New Balance sneakers. He likes the color and believes they will last throughout the year. Plus, they match his required polo shirts and khaki pants.
