Ezra, 17 years old, NC

Wish submitted by:

Ezra is in a new placement with a new family this year and started at a new high school in a different state. It was a tough transition, but he recently joined a Christian group and he has made some good friends through that group. He enjoys playing soccer, drawing and painting. He is very proud that he recently got his driver’s license! Ezra has a job at a local car wash and has been saving money for a car. His grades are good, and he is hoping to go to a four-year college. After hearing a presentation from the military recruiter at his school, he is also considering entering the military or doing ROTC. For a career, he would like to do graphic design or be a physical therapist.

In his foster placement, Ezra enjoys riding around the neighborhood using his foster sibling's bike, even though their bikes are way too small for him. Ezra has asked for a bike of his own so that he can join the family in rides on the greenway and neighborhood. Ezra really enjoys being outdoors and biking is one of his coping skills! With this wish he will be able to get a bike that fit him and his style.
