Eric, 16, is passionate about hunting but lacked the resources to do so legally. Alice’s Kids provided a gift card to cover the cost of a hunter safety class and a West Virginia Sportsman Package, allowing him to pursue his interest responsibly. After completing the course, Eric legally hunted with his uncle and harvested two deer, including a nine-point buck. The support also strengthened his family bonds and brought greater stability to his life.
