Eric Dackwish is a smart kid who enjoys talking to others and really appreciates attention shown to him. He enjoys soccer and chemistry class, and wants to be a crop scientist when he is older. He loves to make people laugh. He said he wants “to give to the poor and the needy.” His favorite verse is Jeremiah 29:11, “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future.” He wants a sponsor to know that “I'm happy because they stand at the gap to see me (become all that) God want me to be.”
