A backpack for Zelma as she goes back to school!

Posted Jul 5, 2017
Zelma is anxiously awaiting the fall to start school. This year she has found a new backpack that fits her style perfectly that she would love to use to carry all her things around in!

Zelma is 12 years old and lives in NC

Zelma loves My Little Pony, Hello Kitty, and Minnie Mouse. She also likes to watch cartoons, play with her sisters, and sit in her foster mom's lap. She is attached to her blanket, loves candy, and is looking forward to going to school. She has adjusted well to foster care and loves having her sisters around. Zelma came into care with a large sibling group; she is happy to stay with her sisters and has adjusted well. Routine and schedule have really helped her.
