Rio, 10 years old, MD | 1 DAY WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Rio is a typical boy who loves to be dirty, play outside and watch sports. He is a big football fan and enjoys watching Sunday Night Football with his foster family. When Rio is not playing sports or having fun with friends, he is focusing on school and continuing his learning.

One of Rio’s favorite things to do in his downtime is to play his favorite video games. Since coming into care, he has used gaming to take a break from the everyday challenges of foster care and escape into the fantasy worlds he loves. A rectangular basket with a gaming design would give him a place to keep his gaming things together, like controllers, cables, and games. It would keep his space organized and his favorite items within reach. A basket decorated with a design he loves would also make his space feel more like his own. For a boy who finds comfort in his games, having a spot to keep them neat and close at hand would be a small but meaningful touch.
