Alexandre, 15 years old

Wish submitted by:

Alexandre is one of two brothers who recently were placed with a relative caregiver. Alexandre is a proud big brother, always looking after his little brother and being a tremendous advocate for staying together in care. This is especially important to Alexandre because he has already been separated from other siblings. Alexandre loves gaming, riding bikes, drawing, swimming and building legos. He loves Ramon noodles, apples and McDonalds, and his special interest is fishing. He hopes to be a gamer or a YouTuber when he grows up.

Alexandre and his little brother were just separated from other siblings, but placed together in a relative caregiver's home. The relative is trying to keep the boys busy to help with their trauma and to keep them focused on the good that they have in their lives. They want to add more fun into these little guys' lives. Providing this gift will keep a little boy engaged and active during the summer months, while his mother is receiving substance-abuse services. It will also provide a needed resource to the caregiver, whose own finances are strained, and help ensure the stability of this very important placement.
