Nw pair of back to school shoes for Mario who loves to play basketball!!

Posted Sep 13, 2017
Mario would like a pair of vans for his wish. He has a pair of all black ones that are very worn out, they are his favorite shoes. He just picked out new back to school clothes and he thinks that a black pair of vans would be an excellent addition to his wardrobe.

Mario is 20 years old and lives in CA

Mario is a 12-year-old young man who has resided at his current group home for about 15 months; he is in the 7th grade. His favorite subjects in school this year are science and P.E. his favorite sport is football. He does a wonderful job of being the big brother. All three of them should be going home soon and that makes them very happy!!
