A new pair of sneakers for Cody for back to school!

Posted Jul 12, 2017
Cody's shoes literally do not fit and he is in desperate need of a great pair of sneakers! He wishes for a new pair that he will be proud to wear as he heads back to school in the fall. This wish will be a great help to Cody and give him a boost of self confidence.

Cody is 25 years old and lives in NC

Cody is a great guy but has many challenges. He was abandoned at birth and has been in kinship care all his life; being raised in a single father situation along with his biological brother. His kinship father recently passed away and he went back to live with his birth mother. Unfortunately, she passed away soon after he went to live with her. He is a happy go lucky kind of guy that has some cognitive delays. He loves going to church, fitting in with a group of boys, and playing outside. He's quite ambitious! You always see a smile on his face.
