A little girl in Boston is celebrating her birthday this year by giving back. Laila Burgess was adopted out of foster care when she was eight-months-old and she’s using her seventh birthday to collect basic necessities for other foster kids.
Her mom, Coleen, says Laila was curious about what life is like for children in foster care and she told her they often arrive with nothing, just the clothes on their backs. So that gave the girl the idea to collect items to donate for foster kids in need.

A federal appeals court has denied the latest effort from the Wampanoag Tribe of Gay Head in its fight to construct a casino on tribal land with no town regulatory strings attached.
A panel of judges on the U.S. First Circuit Court of Appeals previously ruled the tribe must obtain building permits from the town of Aquinnah for a planned bingo hall.
The tribe’s request for a review from the entire court and not just the panel, was shot down on Monday.
