Hi, I’m Lucille! I’m 10 years old, and if we ever meet, I’ll probably say “Hi!” right away—because I really, really love making new friends. I just love kids. All kinds of kids. If you want to play, I want to play with you.

Sometimes it feels like there are never enough friends to go around. I’m always ready to talk, share, laugh, and have fun—but not everyone knows how to do that right away. That’s okay! I believe that everyone deserves a friend who sees how awesome they are.

That’s why my mom and I started Journey for Connection—so kids like me (and maybe like you) can meet new people, feel safe being ourselves, and never have to feel left out. There’s always room for one more friend here.

I hope I get to meet you someday. I think we’d get along.
