Bentley, 2 years old, VA | 1 DAY WAITING | NEEDED BY 10/16

Wish submitted by:

Bentley is a physical, high-energy toddler who loves being outside, splashing in puddles, and chasing after the family dog whenever he gets the chance. Bentley entered foster care several months ago and is still adjusting to his first placement, occasionally having big meltdowns when he doesn't get his way, a normal part of toddlerhood made a bit more intense by the instability he's already faced. He's affectionate once he calms down, loves being swung around in the air, and is starting to string together a few words at a time. Bentley's foster family describes him as a joyful handful, full of energy and curiosity. He deserves patient, steady caregivers who can help him feel safe as he continues growing.

Bentley loves being outside no matter the weather, and warm winter clothing lets him keep exploring, splashing, and chasing the family dog as the season turns colder. With a birthday gift card to Old Navy, he and his family can find the right outfits and sizes he needs for the season. The right gear means his foster family can say yes to his outdoor energy instead of worrying about him being cold or uncomfortable, keeping one of his favorite parts of daily life uninterrupted. For a toddler still adjusting to a new home, having his basic needs consistently met helps build the security and routine he needs most right now.
