A Locking Storage Trunk for Alyssa to protect the things she loves

Posted May 22, 2020
Alyssa resides in a home with other foster children. Recently some of her special items have been stolen or broken. This camp trunk along with a combination lock would provide a feeling that her important sentimental items will be protected! Alyssa struggles with deep feelings of grief and loss and this would just show her that adults care about her feelings!

Alyssa is 15 years old and lives in NJ

Alyssa is a lively young lady who loves crafts and shopping. She has been in multiple foster placements over several years before this current placement. She has a quick funny sense of humor and a beautiful smile!

"Alyssa was quick to pick out a blush pink steamer trunk with a pink combination lock for her room! She is glad to have a space for her special items like her gifts and memories from her family. Alyssa picked out the color on sale and was able to use the extra for a hot pink water bottle! She believes she will look super cool with her hot pink water bottle with teal accents! Thank you for your families generosity. As her therapist, I can say the special items they sometimes receive always bring large smiles and excitement! "
