A fishing tackle box for Jon who wants to join the Army someday

Posted Dec 16, 2018
Jon loves everything about fishing, though he doesn't have any of the supplies himself. He watches fishing videos on YouTube relentlessly! He would love a fishing tackle box set for bass fishing. Granting this wish for Jon would be such a great way for Jon to realize that there are people out in the world who care about him!

Jon is 20 years old and lives in IN

Jon is a great kid who can be a little rough around the edges due to some instability in his past home life. Recently, he has been very motivated to prepare for his future. He just started an after school job working at the local pizza place. His foster parents have been helping him plan for his long-term goal of joining the military after he graduates.

"Jon, I am so impressed with your desire to join the military and you starting a new job after school. The military is a great place for people who have had a tough start to get a new chance and serve our country. If you continue to work hard to join the military, I know you will have a great future. I hope you enjoy this gift and that you catch a big fish soon! Please know someone cares about you and believes in you. -Alison "
