A gold ring for Ron to open on his birthday

Posted Jan 23, 2025
This year, Ron has made it clear what he wants for his birthday: a gold ring. He asked for it with a rare kind of excitement, explaining how much it would mean to him. For Ron, this ring isn’t just a piece of jewelry—it’s a symbol of something special as he turns a year older and steps into a new chapter of his life. It feels meaningful to him because it represents this important milestone and the beginning of a new journey. Since he doesn’t usually receive gifts like this on his birthday, it feels like a moment of recognition and celebration that’s long overdue. He sees it as a memento that marks this significant moment. Ron rarely asks for something so specific, which makes this request all the more meaningful.

Ron is 17 years old and lives in OR

Ron is a resilient young person who, along with his three siblings, entered foster care after their parents were incarcerated. Despite the challenges, Ron has become a protector and leader for his siblings, often prioritizing their needs. A natural athlete, Ron enjoys playing basketball and football, using sports as a way to clear his mind and manage stress. He also loves being outdoors, whether it’s running with his siblings or simply enjoying nature. Through his passion for sports, Ron not only faces his own challenges but also sets an example for his siblings, showing them the importance of self-care and supporting each other in tough times.
