The Lost & Found Institute

Addy is currently living in a kinship placement with her older sister, and the stability of this environment has provided her with the support she needs to grow. She has a deep love for the outdoors, especially on sunny days, as the warmth of the sun on her skin brings her a sense of calm and grounding, making nature one of her favorite places to recharge. Whether she’s taking a quiet walk or simply sitting outside, Addy finds peace in the fresh air and open sky. One of her most cherished activities is writing in her journal, which serves as a personal outlet that allows her to clear her mind, express her feelings, and unwind when life feels overwhelming, helping her stay centered and reflective. Addy also values the time she spends with her family; playing board games together brings her joy, connection, and lots of laughter, strengthening her bonds with her loved ones and reminding her of the supportive people around her.

Addy is also wishing for a warm, fuzzy Ugg headband to keep her ears cozy on colder days. She loves spending time outside, even when the weather is brisk, and a soft headband would make those moments so much more comfortable. Whether she’s soaking in the sunshine, journaling outdoors, or enjoying time with her family, having something snug around her ears would bring her both warmth and comfort. It’s a small request, but one that would make a big difference in her day-to-day adventures.
