A belated birthday shopping trip for Shakilah who loves to look fashionable

Posted Oct 26, 2018
Shakilah would love to be able to go to the store to pick out some awesome new clothes and shoes as a belated birthday treat to herself. She didn't get to celebrate her birthday the way she wanted to so this would be an awesome way to help her bring on a new year!

Shakilah is 12 years old and lives in NJ

Shakilah is an adorable little girl, who just entered the first grade. She was in foster care for several years, but is now living with a relative. Despite her hardships, she remains the most engaging and carefree child.
