Holly White is fundraising
I’m an adoptee, and I’m raising funds to support children in care across Maine through Adoptive and Foster Families of Maine. This fundraiser is for children who need holiday gifts, including children being raised by grandparents or other relatives who may be on lower-income budgets and cannot afford holiday expenses on top of higher costs like gas and fuel. The goal is to help make sure they are remembered during the holiday season.Funds from this fundraiser will help provide holiday gifts for about 1,400 children in need, with up to $75 per child. The gifts need to be provided by the third week of December, so this support is especially time-sensitive right now.For children who have experienced trauma, receiving a holiday gift can mean more than just getting something on their wish list. It can help them feel seen, loved, and appreciated by the community. Fulfilling these holiday wishes is one way to show these children that they matter and that people across Maine care about them.If you’re able to give, any donation will help bring holiday gifts to children in care this season. Sharing this fundraiser can also make a real difference. Thank you for helping this community come together for Maine’s children.0 supporters
