Help Silas Pack for Overnight Summer Camp

Posted Mar 12, 2022
Thanks to One Simple Wish donors, Silas is getting to go to a special week of overnight camp with siblings that he has been separated from while in foster care. Silas's summer camp packing list includes the following wishes, that will help him feel at home both in the cabin and after camp: a sleeping bag, flashlight, portable fan, a stuffed animal (a cool one), comic books and quiet manipulatives for help falling asleep after lights out.

Silas is 19 years old and lives in ME

Silas is a funny, caring middle sibling who's separated from his older and younger brothers as a result of geographically diverse foster care placements. He is looking forward to turning 15 and getting his first job someday soon,and catching up on school, so that he can be a role model to his younger brothers.

"Thank you so much for your compassionate gift that will allow Silas to enjoy his overnight cabin experience at summer camp. A clean new warm sleeping bag will keep him comfortable and warm at night. These little touches make a huge difference, and provide a "normal" and good memory."
