Tennis Shoes for Shawn to cheer him up

Posted May 1, 2020
Shawn wishes for new tennis shoes because his are wore out. Shawn is a special needs child that has feet and leg problems. This causes Shawn to wear out shoes more quickly than the normal wear and tear. This wish would really cheer him up right now because he just found out he is getting hearing aids and his tonsils out. Shawn has been really bummed out and worried over this news.

Shawn is 18 years old and lives in NC

Shawn is a wonderful young man who, despite struggling with the lasting effects of abuse and neglect, has a bright and caring spirit. With many special needs, he requires a high level of care and attention, but he thrives when he is part of a loving family. Shawn enjoys working on fixing things and finding satisfaction in hands-on activities. He has a fondness for Chick-fil-A and loves listening to music in his downtime. Driven by his passion for helping others, Shawn aspires to become a teacher someday, eager to make a positive impact in the lives of those around him.
