Help Preserve a Foster Care Placement

Description of Need: A teenage boy in foster care, who has been out of his home for 6 years and 8 months, is seeking support from the community to help meet two specific personal goals: obtaining an adult-sized bicycle, safety equipment, and enrolling in beginner guitar lessons. Who Needs Help: This request is for one teenage male in foster care. What Do They Need: An adult-sized bicycle for local transportation and increased independence. A set of beginner guitar lessons (virtual or in-person) to help him learn to play and build confidence through music. Why This Matters: The youth has expressed a strong interest in music and a desire to be more independent in his daily life. The bicycle would allow him to safely get to school, appointments, and extracurricular activities. The guitar lessons would give him a creative outlet and provide a sense of accomplishment and joy during a pivotal time in his personal development. Impact of Meeting the Need: Meeting this need will help the youth build confidence, reduce isolation, and promote healthy outlets for emotional expression. It supports his healing journey and personal growth while showing him that his community values and believes in his future.
