HOLIDAY WISH

A Trip to Build a Bear for one of Carrie's children to create a memorial bear

Posted Nov 29, 2022
Carrie is a former foster youth and a mother. Her mother recently past and she would love to get her child a bear, her mothers favorite animal, and put a recording of her voice in it. That way whenever they are feeling down they can hug this bear and remember that they are loved. This wish will give a great way for them to remember her mother and her love.

Carrie is 28 years old and lives in MA

Carrie's time in foster care allowed her to just be a kid, and not take on the parent role in her family. While hard to adjust to at first, foster care gave her opportunities to better her life, including graduating high school. Carrie is a proud mom to two little ones, and is a Certified Nursing Assistant. She is hoping to go back to nursing school soon.
