A soccer ball for Veronica to keep her skills sharp
Posted Mar 14, 2024
Veronica misses playing daily soccer in Ecuador. She does not have as much time for soccer while she resides in foster care and worries she is losing her skills. Having a soccer ball will enable her to work on her footwork skills in the backyard of her new foster home and in the park across the street. She also feels it will be a way to alleviate stress - important for a teen!
Veronica is 14 years old and lives in NJ
Veronica is a talented musician and singer. She plays guitar and plans to join the youth choir at the church near her foster home. She misses her family in Ecuador but hopes to see them again. She is in her third placement while in foster care but manages to keep a positive attitude. She is inspiring! She keeps straight A's in school and also manages to keep in touch with her best friend despite being placed in different foster homes. She is a loyal friend and a delightful teen.
