A new pair of shoes for Marquise who just made the basketball team

Posted Sep 8, 2021
Marquise has just made the basketball team at school and would love a new pair of basketball shoes. These new shoes will help him run faster and jump higher! He knows he will be shooting 3's all season long if he has these awesome fresh kicks.

Marquise is 13 years old and lives in VA

Marquise is an amazing young man who recently entered the foster care system after he was removed from his mother due to neglect. Marquise is adjusting well in his new home and is doing well in school. He loves to play basketball, football and soccer and wants to be a Sports Doctor. Marquise has been through lots of trauma in his short years but continues smile and have a positive outlook on life.
