Shawn, 18 years old

Wish submitted by:

Shawn is a wonderful young man who, despite struggling with the lasting effects of abuse and neglect, has a bright and caring spirit. With many special needs, he requires a high level of care and attention, but he thrives when he is part of a loving family. Shawn enjoys working on fixing things and finding satisfaction in hands-on activities. He has a fondness for Chick-fil-A and loves listening to music in his downtime. Driven by his passion for helping others, Shawn aspires to become a teacher someday, eager to make a positive impact in the lives of those around him.

Shawn wishes for 10 pack of transparent face masks to wear at school. He is hard of hearing with hearing aids and a transparent face mask will allow his mouth to be seen and he will be able to share a mask with anyone he’s working with so he can read their lips as well. This will allow Shawn to communicate better and understand everything that’s going on around him. He is apprehensive about wearing mask and having to go to school during COVID-19; this will help him feel at ease. It is required that he wear a mask at school this year.
