A BMX Freestyle Bike for Whymair who is a talented athlete and loves the outdoors

Posted Jan 10, 2021
Whymair has been blessed with the extraordinary gift of athleticism, something that was apparent even at very young age. Whymair's grandmother was hoping to surprise him with his own Mongoose freestlye BMX bike, but she is unable to given her fixed-income budget. Whymair has been using a cousin's freestyle bike, but that is not an option anymore. He is in need of a positive recreational outlet, and with this bike, he can learn jump tricks and participate in fun neighborhood bike rides. If Whymair's wish is granted, he will be so thankful and ecstatic - he probably won't stop smiling for days!

Whymair is 18 years old and lives in NJ

Whymair is an intelligent, funny and athletic young man, who is also incredibly resilient. Despite numerous attempts, Whymair has not been able to have a consistent relationship with either of his parents. He does have a wonderful support system in place with his grandmother and grandfather; after living with them on and off for 10 years, he finally found some stability three years ago when he moved in with them full time. Whymair was diagnosed with ADHD at a young age and can struggle with impulsive behaviors as well as his decision making skills. With the help of his grandparents and other supports, he is learning coping strategies that can help him when he is struggling. Whymair's interests are varied, and he enjoys playing basketball and football, bike riding, dancing, rapping, cooking and reading. Perhaps one of the most telling things about Whymair are his career aspirations. He dreams of playing professional basketball , but If basketball does not work out he has his heart set on becoming a chef or going into the field of law enforcement.
