A very special young man is the focus of this Waiting Child report. Richard is 14. He used to be called “Richie,” but he says “I’m too big for that Richie stuff now!” Just starting high school in 9th grade, Richard is growing up, but still very much wants a family with whom he can share his life.
Richard loves animals and has aspirations to someday be a zoo keeper. He is very bright and likes music; He says that’s his favorite part about going to church. Richard is also fond of going to movies and playing video games.
For more information about Richard, becoming a foster or adoptive parent, or other ways to get involved and make a difference in a child’s life, contact Youth Villages at 252-7600.
Waiting child is made possible by Wendy’s and The Dave Thomas Foundation.
