Marcus is an 8-year-old first grader with a bright mind and a hardworking spirit. He said that he hopes to be a “hospital worker” when he grows up. He lives with his single mother and three siblings, all of whom have faced tremendous hardship over the past year.

Despite these challenges, Marcus remains an incredibly serious and diligent student. According to his teachers, he is a smart and focused young boy who is determined to excel in his studies. His resilience and dedication inspire those around him, and with the right support, Marcus has the potential to achieve great things in the future. Sponsored by: Tina Hinchley
