Justin, 12 years old, OH

Wish submitted by:

Justin is a kind and determined young boy who enjoys spending time with his siblings and staying active. He lives with his twin sister and brother, and the three share a close bond as they have grown up supporting one another through many challenges. For several years, Justin and his family experienced homelessness, often moving between campers and sleeping on the couches of friends and relatives while their mother worked hard to find stable housing. Despite these hardships, Justin has remained positive and focused on the things he enjoys. One of Justin’s favorite pastimes is playing sports. He enjoys being active, spending time outdoors, and participating in games that allow him to use his energy in a fun and healthy way. Now that his family is beginning to experience more stability, Justin is excited for the opportunity to continue growing, staying active, and enjoying time with his siblings and family.

Justin recently competed in a cooking contest at school. He was excited to find out he was picked to be among the five finalists. Justin didn't win but had fun and was excited that his recipe was chosen. He would love to have his own supplies to be prepared for next time.
