A pair of special sneakers for Karson to wear to school

Posted Oct 3, 2024
Karson has always yearned for a pair of Jordan Air 4 Retros. They serve as a poignant reminder of his beloved uncle, who was a guiding light in his life before he entered foster care. His uncle cherished these sneakers, and they evoke bittersweet memories for Karson. Despite facing adversity, he has excelled at his new school, displaying unwavering commitment with perfect attendance and stellar grades. Acquiring a pair of these sneakers would symbolize a heartfelt reward for his perseverance and unwavering spirit in the face of hardship.

Karson is 17 years old and lives in FL

Karson was placed in a group home after being separated from his family due to his caregiver's incarceration. He is adjusting to his new year-round school and getting to know the staff and other youth at the group home. Karson is a sociable young man who enjoys talking to people and is interested in computers. He hopes to become a computer engineer in the future.
