Henry
15 Years Old
Meet Henry!
Henry is an easygoing young man. Though he may be a bit shy at first, once he opens up, you’ll quickly see the kindness that defines him. He has a positive energy and is very encouraging and supportive of his peers. Whether he’s playing football, practicing boxing, or simply enjoying the outdoors or video games with friends, Henry likes to stay busy.
But what Henry is truly proud of? His impressive guitar skills. He loves playing guitar and uses his music as a creative way to express himself and connect with others. When asked to describe himself in three words, Henry chose ‘creative, kind, and funny’—and these qualities shine through to anyone who gets to know him.
Henry has big dreams for his future, including becoming a lawyer and visiting Rome one day. But for now, his greatest wish is to find a family to call his own—a family that can offer the love, support, and guidance he deserves.
Henry would thrive in a calm, structured home where he can receive the attention and patience needed to build trust and lasting connections. He would especially like a positive male role model who can encourage and support him in his journey.
