A basketball hoop for Michael who is an all star athlete!

Posted Aug, 15, 2017

Michael recently had to move foster homes due to very sad circumstances after his foster mom suddenly died. Michael is an all star athlete and a straight A student and his new foster mom is hoping she can provide him with a basketball hoop in their yard so he can practice often and have fun and get his mind off of things.
