Life Skills Seminar for Zekeriah to attend while at Camp To Belong
Posted Mar 10, 2022
Zekeriah doesn't have access to the resources and skills that many of his peers have. He has been asking his social worker and foster family to be connected to a sibling he's separated from, as well as access to support services and a peer community so that he can start thinking about life after foster care. This wish will fund his participation in a Life Skills Seminar during a summer camp that will also reunite him with her sibling. Life Skills Seminar will bring in alumni foster care from around the state, provide all supplies needed, and leave Zek with ideas and resources that he can access anytime after camp.
Zekeriah is 21 years old and lives in ME
Zekeriah is the oldest of four brothers, who he has been living in a separate foster home from through no fault of his own. He loves cats, music, goofing off outside with his brothers, and staying in touch with old friends on social media even as he changes schools and homes. He is not able to see his brothers for more than brief visits other than at Camp To Belong.

"Thank you so much for your generous gift towards Zekeriah's camp week with his siblings at Camp To Belong this summer! We are starting to make welcome calls to campers this month and look forward to reuniting siblings who have been separated while in foster care for an entire week in August. Doubtless that the shared memory building will last long after this summer, thanks to your gift."
