A New Backpack for Shaniah to start off middle school right

Posted Aug 7, 2022
Shaniah is a bit nervous to start middle school. To help her feel a bit more confident, she's hoping for a new backpack to carry all her books and her laptop in. She knows a new backpack won't solve all her problems, but she said she will feel more confident with one.

Shaniah is 13 years old and lives in CA

Shaniah is a very responsible girl who gets great grades. Even though she has experienced trauma, she did not let that get in the way of her education. She is waiting to be adopted with her sister by her foster mom as she craves stability. Shaniah is a very sweet and appreciative girl.

"Shaniah, I hope you find the perfect backpack to start middle school! My daughter just finished 8th grade, and I know it can be a little intimidating, but there are so many wonderful opportunities to try new things and make new friends. Just be kind and do your best, and know that there are so many people out there rooting for you! Have a wonderful school year! "

"From Shaniah: Thank you so much for my backpack! My first day of school was great! Well, actually it was the second day because my brother had to go to the ER the first day, but it was ok and he is ok. I already made a couple new friends and hope to make more. Thank you!"
