Frankie has been asking for a hoverboard for a long time and told his aunt that he would be so grateful to get one for Christmas or his birthday if there was any way it could be possible. The family is on a limited income and can't afford it right now, though his aunt is trying to save up for holiday gifts for the families. Frankie’s friends all have hoverboards and he would love to be able to ride around on his own! This would be a huge treat for Frankie and an enormous help to his aunt as she continually tries to make the kids feel like they're not experiencing hard times.
