An Orange Hard Shell Suitcase for Shawn to take on his fishing trip

Posted Oct 12, 2022
Shawn wishes for an orange hard shell suitcase to take on his fishing trip. This will be easy for him to manage and keep his clothes clean. He will be able to recognize his orange suitcase easily from the other boys and this will make life easier for his special needs. He will be able to roll this so he don’t have to pick it up and carry a heavy bag. This will help accommodate his disabilities.

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.

"Hi Shawn, I hope you have the most wonderful time on your fishing trip! It was so smart of you to think of asking for a suitcase in a bright color so you can spot it easily! Wishing you the best of luck at catching some fish! You know what they say: “Give a man a fish and he’ll eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and he’ll eat for a lifetime!” Cheers to you and your upcoming adventure! Your friend, Amanda "
