Sneakers for John to fit in with his peers at his new school

Posted Aug 9, 2023
John is excited to start his new high school adventure. He really wants to be able to fit in with his new classmates, and he thinks a cool new pair of sneakers would be just the thing. John is a big fan of Nike shoes, and he's hoping to find the perfect black pair to wear to school. He's looking forward to trying on different styles at the store and finding the ones that feel just right. With his new sneakers, John is ready to make new friends and have a fantastic school year!

John is 17 years old and lives in CA

John is a talented foster youth who loves to express himself through his drawings and mystery stories. Currently, he's in foster care and enjoying his new placement. Interestingly, his caregiver shares the same love for mystery books as he does. John is optimistic about his new school and hopes to have a great experience there. Writing is his favorite subject, and he's really good at it!
