A pair of New Balance shoes for Jamil to stay active and in style

Posted Nov 12, 2024
Jamil’s determination and resilience have enabled him to overcome numerous obstacles throughout his life, from years spent in foster care to the challenges of supporting his family. His passion for running and staying active drives him to pursue his goals both on and off the track. A new pair of New Balance shoes would provide him with the comfort and support he needs to stay motivated and physically prepared as he faces personal and academic challenges. This gift would represent a meaningful step forward, helping Jamil feel confident and empowered on his journey.

Jamil is 21 years old and lives in PA

Jamil was in the foster care system for several years because his mom was having health issues, and his dad was in jail. Once his dad got out of jail, he was able to get Jamil back and help support his mom. In his free time, he likes to read, run, play sports, and travel. Jamil is very resilient, consistent, and determined to achieve what he sets his mind to.
