A new drawing and painting kit for Lucy, a refugee foster child

Posted Jun 8, 2017
Lucy loves art and would love a drawing and painting kit so she can express herself through her work. She lives near a Michaels Art Supply Store and has been eyeing up a drawing kit and paper for days. Recently she was laid off from her job and has been trying not to spend money. We are concerned that she may lose this important and positive means of dealing with trauma since she can no longer afford her own supplies. A gift card to Michaels would be incredible for helping Lucy stay positive!

Lucy is 22 years old and lives in PA

Lucy is a refugee from Somalia. She has been in care for over 10 years and has no family. Her foster care family has been very supportive but is unable to accommodate extra expenses for Lucy's artistic passion, which has been her only means of expression.
