New Clothes for Lillian to wear to Sleep Away Camp
Posted Jun 10, 2019
Lillian is attending a special summer camp program in August, that will allow her to see a sibling she has been separated from while in foster care. She does not have swimming layers, and is also missing some essentials for chilly evenings like sweatpants, a windbreaker, and closed toed shoes. This gift will help her be warm, comfortable, and clean - and leave her more prepared for similar clothing needs that will arise when the school year starts and seasons change.
Lillian is 14 years old and lives in ME
Lillian is a resilient sweet kid, who grew up with a strong bond to her sibling. Unfortunately Lillian has been separated from all of her bio family including this sibling, after being taken into foster care.

"Dear awesome person, thank you so much for granting this wish for Lillian! Our volunteer team is meeting with her and her siblings this month to prepare for the camp week. We'll be talking about what every day will look like, and will also review a packing list. If she doesn't own something on the list, our staff will quietly note color preferences, sizing, etc. and purchase the missing items (a sleeping bag, a bathing suit, etc) and have them waiting for her on her bunk bed when she arrives. Part of the camp experience is lots of photo taking, so that Lillian and her siblings can make and take home albums as an end-of-camp activity. While most of the photos aren't publicly shareable due to privacy, please feel free to find Camp To Belong Maine on Facebook after August because we will share the photos that we can, on our Facebook page!"
