A Camping Experience at Jellystone Park for Justin who is in need of an escape from reality and into nature

Posted Oct 3, 2022
Justin wishes to go on a weekend camping trip to Jellystone Park. Jellystone Park is a campsite where a kid can create childhood memories to last a lifetime. From water activities, jumping pillows, and wagon rides to themed parties, and s’mores, there's more than enough to take Justin's mind off his daily stressors, fears, and challenges. He'll definitely find comfort in Mother Nature, which is the goal. This camping trip would be the trip of a lifetime for Justin, where he can make life-long memories.

Justin is 11 years old and lives in TX

Justin was born and raised in a city full of crime, gangs, and poverty. He was raised thinking that was the norm and that living any better was a rare exception. He got a rare brain infection, landing him in the hospital him for months that he almost didn't survive. This left a huge scar on the side of his head that he's constantly taunted about by his peers. His parents that were on the verge of splitting prior to his birth, moved to Texas for a better life, but were defeated by challenges and split soon after. Justin has some cognitive delays, and along with a lack of social insight and perception, this has made life challenging and overwhelming for him. He, unfortunately, also has been the subject of a long term custody battle that makes his life tumultuous between his mom’s, dad’s, and grandmother’s house. So, any escape from reality consumes him, such as his love for movies, Cub Scouts, video games, playing with LEGO’s, cats, family time, and most of all the great outdoors. He wants to be a veterinarian when he’s older due to his love for all animals.
