Slip-on sneakers for Shawn to wear during gym class

Posted Sep 3, 2024
Shawn wishes for a pair of slip-on sneakers to wear in PE. This will help him be prepared for PE class and keep him moving. Slip-on shoes will also allow him to be independent and dress himself without help. His current sneakers are worn out, and he can’t wear them to school.

Shawn is 18 years old and lives in NC

Shawn is a wonderful young man who, despite struggling with the lasting effects of abuse and neglect, has a bright and caring spirit. With many special needs, he requires a high level of care and attention, but he thrives when he is part of a loving family. Shawn enjoys working on fixing things and finding satisfaction in hands-on activities. He has a fondness for Chick-fil-A and loves listening to music in his downtime. Driven by his passion for helping others, Shawn aspires to become a teacher someday, eager to make a positive impact in the lives of those around him.
