Prescott Child of the Week: Lily

Lily-webWith hope, a child can dream greater and achieve more. The simplest of deeds can serve the biggest needs.

Meet Lily, an adorable 8 year old girl with an upbeat and positive attitude about life. Lily is the youngest of three children living with their single mother who works full-time, including weekends. Lily has faced adversity in her young life and continues to persevere finding the silver lining.

Lily enjoys a variety of activities, including riding her bike and practicing yoga (she even has her own yoga mat). Lily’s mom states “Lily is very adventurous and likes new experiences, except trying new foods.”  Lily would love a Big Sister who could take her on outdoor adventures or a yoga class. Lily enjoys school and makes good grades. Her favorite classes are science and reading. 

Giving 8 hours a month as a Big Couple or Big Family provides hope where little is often found. Mentoring a child can be as simple as offering up an extra seatbelt in your car, so a child like Lily can tag along.
