A Colorful Basketball so that TJ can practice for the NBA

Posted Oct 29, 2022
TJ loves to play sports, but he has never had any sports equipment to call his own. TJ would love to play on a basketball team so that he can one day join the NBA, but he needs a basketball that he can use to practice in his foster home. TJ would love nothing more than to spend all of his time mastering his 3-point shots! He will be so excited to find this awesome ball under the Christmas tree.

TJ is 9 years old and lives in OH

TJ is a joyful young boy who is figuring out who he is. TJ has recently discovered a love of sports and would love to practice and join a team. Sports help TJ to work through his emotions that he struggles to understand. TJ has been in foster care for the majority of his life and has spent time in numerous foster homes and residential treatment as he is trying to learn how to work through his trauma. Despite his struggles, he is a wonderful young man who is always trying to look forward and find things in life that bring him joy.
