TOPSHAM Mt. Ararat High School senior Isabelle Gardiner has put her skills to work creating art she is selling to benefit an organization that reunites siblings separated by foster care.
The 18-year-old chose Camp to Belong Maine for the fundraiser because it aligned with her interests. It works directly with kids by helping reunite siblings separated by foster care.
“I want to go into psychology or social work in college and foster care is an element that really interests me and I’d love to work with kids,” Gardiner said. “I thought this was a good way to get my toes in the water.”
