Kids in Ohio's foster care system sometimes end up placed with a family with little more than that clothes on their back. A Northeast Ohio lawyer is working to provide them all with some more outfits in their wardrobe, and she could use more donations.
HIGHLAND HEIGHTS, Ohio — Finding much-needed stability for children in crisis continues to be a struggle in Northeast Ohio.
Family photos, clothing, a favorite blanket — all left behind in the blink of an eye. That loss only compounds the trauma these children may have experienced. "I remember being at that age where unfortunately I was developing and not having that and being teased at school because I didn't have the things for a teenage girl at that time," said Camargo."Those [undergarments] need to be individually bought, and so that leaves other things that won't get bought and that's what I hope to provide," said Melanie GiaMaria.
"They'll put on their dress and they're twirl around and that always makes me really happy, just that they're smiling, and maybe have some happiness for that day. I mean, I can't fix their trauma, but if I can make them smile because they have a pretty dress on, that's pretty great," said GiaMaria."I think what she is doing is amazing.
