Y'all bear with me, this was laid on my heart today to share. I go to a church with young man who was a foster kid and endured a terrible childhood. His adopted mother is a wonderful woman who fostered and then adopted 4 kids. He doesn't have a father in his life and I felt compelled to ask his mother if I could take him hunting. She said that would be great and told me that after she told him I wanted to take him hunting that he was so excited, grinning ear to ear! So, I am asking for y'all's help. I need to get him decked out in some camo. I don't have anything small enough for him but I thought you guys might have some camo laying around that you could part with. Also I am planning on taking him to my club next weekend and would like to maybe take him somewhere else the last weekend. If anyone is willing to offer up a hunt on your place for this young man please pm me. We love this sport of turkey hunting and we can use it to make a difference in this boy's life.

Let me know what size I've got a couple pairs of pants and shirts that might fit. I could get them shipped tomorrow.

I dont have clothes or land but this makes my heart smile! God bless you and I hope he gets a huge one. He is guaranteed to have a good time. 
My dang job gets in the way of my turkey hunting. If I could only hit the lotto I'd be good to go.

I have so many messages from y'all it's overwhelming. I think that outdoorobsession has the pants and shirt covered, and I have a hat and gloves for him but if you want to send him anything else just PM me and I will give you my address. I will be in contact with you guys that offered up your place to hunt.

OK.
I have a set of mens large coveralls in Mossy Oak(the kind that is a long sleeve overall type). They are brand new, never used.
Im also sending a camo mens large button shirt, a mens large realtree pullover shirt and a pair of medium matching realtree pants as well. They were the only medium pants in the house..they are really nice but have a small 3" rip on the seam in the back. If your wife or his foster mom have a sewing machine they can be fixed in five minutes.
So, if anyone else has a pair of medium pants they might want to send them.
I also threw in a Mossy Oak camo hat with attached facemask.
I hope that helps. Ill mail them out in the morning. Make a turkey hunter out of him ok?
Thanks for helping the kid out!
When I was a youngster in foster homes..A guy took me hunting and It made all the difference. Since then Ive been in the woods every spare moment.
Good luck!
