Michael, 12 years old, NJ

Wish submitted by:

Michael is a fun-loving young man who loves the outdoors. Bike riding, fishing, and crabbing are some of his favorite activities, and he also loves football, wrestling, and video games. He's doing well in school and enjoys helping out around the house. His family has made great progress toward their goals since getting support through the state.

Michael's bike was recently stolen, but a family friend gave him another one so he can keep riding. He still needs a helmet to ride safely, and his mom can't afford one right now while she's trying to keep up with monthly bills. A helmet would keep him protected as he gets back to the outdoor fun he loves. It's a small purchase that makes a big safety difference.
