13-year old Alexander: 30 Days of Hope

His siblings have all been adopted and he wants a family too

ROANOKE – Alexander is a very sweet and intelligent child. The 13-year old is very active and enjoys riding his bike, hiking, and exploring the outdoors. He also spends his free time drawing and engaged in other creative activities when he cannot go outside. He makes a concerted effort to do well in school and is rewarded with success.

Alexander loves animals, particularly dogs, and enjoys volunteering his time with rescue animals. He comes from a very large group of siblings and loves interacting with other children outside the home.

Alexander’s biological siblings have all been adopted and Alexander very much desires a forever home and a family to call his very own.
