Meet Danny! This smart 15-year-old is waiting for a permanent, loving family. Could you or someone you know be the right family for Danny?
Danny has been described as healthy, active, friendly, and confident. Caregivers say he is well-mannered, listens well, and enjoys physical activities. It is said that Danny is most passionate about drawing, he does this whenever he is given a task from school or captures any new ideas but also enjoys sports and singing. Danny said that his favorite new soccer player is Lionel Messi!
Caregivers say Danny has good academic ability. His favorite subjects are music and art. Danny practices playing the piano and soccer with his friends. Danny is in junior high school and excelled in his previous school year and just completed his first term with good results.
An ideal adoptive family for Danny is active and would enjoy participating in various activities with Danny as a family. Danny would likely do well with siblings. Ideally, the family would be Catholic and be able to raise Danny within the church because he hopes to be a priest when he gets older. His adoptive family needs to be flexible but have a structured daily routine. The family should be an experienced family who understands institutionalization, older child adoption, and be open to unknowns.
