A Life Vest for JR to wear while swimming

Posted Feb 27, 2018
JR wants to go swimming terribly, but is afraid of the water! He wishes for a Life Vest to help him feel more secure and safe! This will give him the confidence he needs to get in the pool and allow him to have fun like the rest of the kids.

JR is 14 years old and lives in NC

JR is a bouncy young man that loves to play outside and getting dirty. His favorite color is orange and he likes spending his time watching movies. JR also enjoys puzzles, video games, remote control cars, and dirt bikes. He is a high paced high energy kind of guy that loves being on the go. He is in long term foster care and has adjusted well.
