HOLIDAY WISH

A bike for Antonio so he can ride with the neighborhood kids

Posted Oct 21, 2024
Antonio rarely speaks up for himself, but deep down, he longs for a simple joy that many take for granted—a bike. He adores spending time with his friends, but there are countless moments when he can only watch from the sidelines, unable to join their adventures. This Christmas, the thought of owning a cool bike fills him with hope and excitement, a chance to finally ride alongside his friends and feel that sense of belonging. However, the reality at home is tough. Antonio’s mother is working hard to make ends meet, and the weight of financial struggles means that gifts are a distant dream this holiday season. Despite the challenges, Antonio's spirit remains unbroken, and his wish for a bike embodies not just a desire for a toy, but a hope for connection and fun. Giving him a bike would not just make this a memorable Christmas; it would enrich his life in ways that one gift could never fully capture. It would mean the world to him and bring joy to a family facing difficult times.

Antonio is 12 years old and lives in NJ

Antonio is a gentle soul who is very kind and thoughtful. He is the oldest of 3 and often takes on a parent role to them. He does well in school and has no trouble making friends. He loves sports and enjoys playing soccer. He likes to play video games but actually prefers to be outside when he can.
