An iPad for Chris who is making great progress

Posted Nov 30, 2018
Chris loves to learn, but his delays sometimes it makes learning difficult. In school, he has a tablet that assists him with communication and identifying words, numbers, letters, colors, etc. He loves to use his hands to draw and trace letters on his learning device at school. Chris would love to have a tablet at home that will help encourage him to continue learning at all times.

Christopher is 16 years old and lives in NJ

Christopher, who likes to be called Chris, is a very special child. His life began harder than most children as his began in the NICU. He was born very premature and with other difficulties. He spent the first few months of his life in the hospital and then was moved into an assisted living facility. When his family saw him, they immediately knew that he needed to be a part of their family. Since that day, his family has helped him to learn to walk and talk. He has done things that his family was told he would never do. He has become a very inquisitive little guy. At his school, he is thriving and growing. Though Chris may have many challenges down the road, he knows with the support of his family, anything is possible. He likes his dog and is learning to walk him.
