HI! My name is Shakur.
“I have a great memory!”

Let me tell you more about myself…
I think I’m polite and funny.

And here’s what others say…
Though a bit shy at first, nine year old Shakur is a friendly and talkative African American youngster. He loves watching movies, playing video games and anything to do with Spiderman. Recently, Shakur learned to play basketball and he has since become more thrilled with the sport. He is a smart child who enjoys receiving one to one attention from adults. Shakur currently lives with relatives and has a strong connection to them. A family for Shakur will need to understand and help to maintain these relationships. He enjoys being part of family activities and keeping busy. Shakur is extremely helpful to those around him and loves to work as part of a team. At school, he benefits from an individualized education plan that addresses his academic and emotional needs. Shakur is thrilled with the extra attention he receives in his small classroom and is proud to have earned the “student of the week” award this school year. Legally free for adoption, he hopes to soon have a permanent family with whom he can share his successes and rely on during difficult times. Shakur has suffered great losses in his young life and would benefit from a committed single or two-parent family, with no younger children, who will ensure he continues to receive the emotional and outside supports he needs. An ideal family will provide him with consistent limits and supervision. As Shakur loves spending time with the positive men in his life, an ideal family will also provide him a strong and positive male figure in his future.

If I could have my own special wish…
I would have a family that understands that my aunt and cousins are very important in my life.
