Posted Feb 23, 2018
Elizabeth would love to go to Build a Bear as a way to take her mind off of some recent overwhelming experiences. Elizabeth's foster mother had an intensive surgery a few weeks ago and her reunification plan has been extended again. Elizabeth is a resilient girl, but she has been very stressed about her future and is hoping to have a fun activity that will help her stay positive. She would love to have the opportunity to be a kid!Thank you for helping comfort Elizabeth during this difficult time.

Elizabeth is 13 years old and lives in RI

Elizabeth is an outgoing and loveable 6 year old girl. She has been in foster care for a year and has come such a long way. Elizabeth loves being around others and is working really hard in school to catch up with her classmates. She loves playing with dolls and her foster sisters.
