Elijah is a caring and energetic boy who loves Sonic the Hedgehog. For him, this wish is about creating happy moments and lasting memories. Sonic gives Elijah a chance to escape and enjoy imaginative play. He told his social worker that his birthday is on Christmas Day, so he often doesn’t get to celebrate it. This year has been especially hard for Elijah and his family as they are still grieving the loss of his sister a few months ago. Having something positive, like his love for Sonic, can bring Elijah some comfort during this tough time.
