Featured Child Marissa
Could you be the family Marissa is looking for?


Bulletin # WA139


Marissa is a beautiful bi-racial girl with a heart stopping smile. She is of average height for her age, slender and healthy. She is very outgoing, talkative and articulate who is full of energy and easy to engage with because she loves everything. Marissa likes gymnastics and group activities which help her to build social skills.

Marissa currently has a pink princess room and she really likes this, she is a girlie girl, but loves the outdoors too. She is very eager to participate in new things. She would like to join girl scouts.

Will you embrace her and allow her to become a part of your family?

A BIG THANK YOU FOR PRINCESS EVENT SPONSORS, VOLUNTEERS, AND DONORS

The Princess event was again a wonderful day for over 200 little girls. Each little girl that participated felt like a True Princess, with pampering and a Tea Party. She even got to dance with a Prince and a Fairy godmother. To make a little girl feel so special puts a smile on your face. We at A Family for Every Child would like to thank all those that participated in this event; we could not have made this happen without the support of our volunteers and donors. Our corporate sponsor Holiday Inn again donated the space and the food and we want to thank them for their generous gift to make this happen.

Many thanks go to the volunteers who put in many hours of time make this a success. We had over 75 volunteers give of their time, energy and creative talents

Maybe you live in another state and have been touched by a waiting child?
