Some art supplies for Russell who uses art as a form of therapy

Posted Apr 24, 2018
Russell enjoys drawing! Also, he utilizes drawing as therapy to express himself and to help others. If given a gift card to Michael's, Russell will be able to purchase art supplies and continue his journey of expression

Russell is 26 years old and lives in DE

Over the past year, Russell has made huge strides! Russell now makes positive choices in his life and it has pointed his life in a positive direction. Recently, he became a youth Pastor and advocates for his peers. Russell helps his peers through difficult times and mentors them by providing them with strength and hope. Russell always believes in putting God first in his life now, and states that he is successful because of God. Russell has not yet reached his fullest potential and is destined for greatness. Russell does not let life's challenges get in his way of what he wants to do. One of Russell’s hobbies was skateboarding. This past year, he had an accident while skateboarding and had to undergo surgery on both of his arms. Currently, he is on the mend and attending physical therapy. However, Russell has not allowed this from stopping him from still moving forward with his life. He has worked on finding a job, and stays on top of all of his appointments and other commitments.

Katherine sent an update on the wish for Russell.

"Today I received a thank you card from Russell. And written notes are scarce! I had been having a day when no one seemed able to do their job correctly, items were defective, and health issues couldn't be answered. Then I opened your card. I cannot tell you how much that piece of sunshine meant to me. Granting a wish has given much more to me than to the recipient. Thank you. Katherine"
