A special dinner at Friday's for Chris who is more motivated

Posted Apr 4, 2018
Chris has been overall doing great with juggling work and school. He has improved his grades from the last semester, and is arriving to work on time and showing great job performance. He really has become more motivated in the last few months it shows. Chris would like to celebrate his successes with a dinner at Fridays restaurant.

Chris is 26 years old and lives in NJ

Chris has a younger brother who he cares for and worries about. He tries to set a good example for him by following the rules and taking responsibility for his actions. Chris graduated High School this year while working a part time job and living in an independent living program. He is planning on joining the military. Chris loves to create new recipes for himself and his roommates.

"Dear Melissa, Thank you for granting Chris's wish for a dinner trip to Friday's through One Simple Wish. Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA’s) are assigned to advocate for the best interest of children in court after they’ve been removed from their homes due to abuse or neglect. It is such a comfort for the kids we serve to receive something special, like the wish you’ve granted, while they are in foster care. Thanks to your generosity, Chris's day has been made a little bit brighter! Warmest Regards, Sam Cirlincione"

"Hello Sam. So great to get your note and so glad to be of help. If Chris has any other needs, we are definitely interested in supporting him through OSW. Please feel free to reach out to us if Chris needs anything else - work clothes, another night out to celebrate a milestone -- whatever would help. Best regards, The Chamberlains"
