A pair of sneakers for Emily to wear on the basketball court

Emily, 14 years old

Wish submitted by:

Trenton Housing Authority

Emily is an honor roll student who loves science. She hopes to become a scientist when she gets older. She has three younger siblings. She also enjoys spending time with her two dogs, Spike and Benny. Emily's favorite getaway place is the beach during the summers.

Emily is almost six feet tall and in high school, where she is getting ready to try out for the basketball team. Since last year, her feet have grown two sizes, and she needs a new pair of sneakers to keep up with her teammates on the court. However, she faces a challenge: her parents can’t afford to buy her the basketball sneakers she needs. Without them, she'll struggle to compete.
