Romeo is a sweet, but shy kid who enjoys playing basketball with his father. At 10 years old, he received a kidney transplant from his father in June of 2012. Romeo has been doing very well post-transplant. His mother recently completed college and his father was working full time until he was laid off from work and is currently looking for another job. After the expensive medical bills, the family was left with no savings and with dad being jobless for a while, the family needed help paying for their utilities bill. The Extra Step was able to afford them this assistance. Additionally, Romeo is a big fan of Batman and wants everyone to know that he believes Batman wins over Superman.
