Marksboro Community Church

Joy is in her first placement home, and it's a challenging time for her, but she is a survivor. She is an energetic and loving little girl who spreads kindness wherever she goes. Joy has a big heart and shares a special bond with her sisters, always finding ways to help, encourage, and spend time with them. She is thoughtful, caring, and quick to make others smile. Joy loves school. She enjoys learning new things, participating in class, and being with her friends and teachers. Her curiosity and positive attitude help her face new challenges with excitement. Whether she is with her family or working hard at school, Joy's gentle spirit and cheerful personality make her a joy to be around.

Joy would love a Coraline badge holder to carry her school ID. She loves the movie Coraline, and when she saw this badge holder, she knew it was exactly what she wanted. She feels a strong connection to Coraline and sees herself in the character, so having a piece of the movie with her at school each day would mean a lot. It would turn something she has to carry every day into something she is proud to show off, and it would remind her of a story she loves every time she clips it on.
