Meet Grant!

People close to Grant can’t say enough good things about him. His foster mom describes him as “intelligent, polite, and helpful!” Grant is always looking to help out where he can, and one of his favorite places to do that is the kitchen. He loves helping to whip up a meal, which bodes well for his dream of becoming a chef one day! He has even taken a few cooking classes recently. Outside of the kitchen, Grant’s passions lie in playing all kinds of games. While his favorites are video games on his Xbox and Playstation, he’s also been really into quiz games lately. “He’s really witty when playing,” his foster mom states. When he’s not gaming, Grant enjoys being active, playing sports, and drawing. He especially loves getting fresh air, playing football with his friends, and being a part of a basketball team. When it’s time to relax, Grant likes to listen to rap music and read his favorite comic series, Dogman. Grant is looking forward to having a home to call his own – maybe, that home is yours!

Grant would thrive in an active home where personalized attention can be provided. He requires a patient family who can provide him with guidance and support through challenging moments. He would love to be in a home with other children as well. Grant has a sibling who is important to him, so a family applying for him should be prepared to help him continue this relationship.
