A Xbox for William who loves to play games with his peers

Posted Aug 10, 2020
William loves to play video games with his peers and loved ones. Being in a group home with many other boys, he is only able to play when someone else doesn't mind sharing with him. He expressed really wishing he had his own so that didn't have to borrow from others, and so that he could connect in this cool and fun way with loved ones he is not able to see in person anymore due to the pandemic - as Xbox allows you to play games online with people that you know. Not being able to see people he cares for other than the boys in the group home has taken a huge toll on him and he has felt lonely. This would be such an exciting gift for him to receive and he will be thrilled to be able to reconnect and play with people that he misses being able to play and spend time with in person!

William is 20 years old and lives in ID

William is a quirky and amazing young man who will soon be adopted by his forever family. Thankfully, he has also been reunited with his sisters as his pre-adoptive family also adopted his sisters when they were very young! Having been in and out of the foster care system through parts of his childhood and throughout his teenage years, his resilience and ability to love others has been inspiring to his peers and even adults in his life. He enjoys ceramics and pottery, learning how to cook and bake, riding his bike, playing video games, and spending time with those he cares about. He is an absolute goof-ball and loves to make people laugh. He has a huge heart and deeply values his relationships with others.
