A Coat for Jonathan who spends a lot of time outside

Posted Dec 11, 2020
Jonathan spends time outside helping with chores and walking his neighbor's dog. He needs a nice, warm coat to keep him cozy and dry throughout these winter months. He'd be so grateful for a coat that fits properly as he rarely has anything brand new that he picked out.

Jonathan is 18 years old and lives in NJ

Jonathan is a well-mannered young man who loves school. His teacher reports that he is very personable and eager. He has endured many hardships throughout his lifetime, like the passing of his mother. Jonathan’s father is struggling financially and cannot pay rent therefore Jonathan is currently in foster care. Before being evicted, a lot of Jonathan’s personal items had been stolen. He walks his neighbor’s dog for money to help him buy another computer. Despite the hardships he has endured at such a young age, Jonathan stays positive and appreciates what he has.
