As I read more, though, I learned that this organization was started by an 11-year-old girl named Hannah, who has a big dream and a huge heart. At age 5, she saw a homeless person eating from a garbage can and decided that she wanted to make sure no one ever had to do that again. It's something we've probably all seen at some point in our lives, but here's a shining example of someone, and someone so young, who is actually making a difference.
Hannah's mission for The Ladybug Foundation is simple:
“I believe that if people know about homelessness – that there are people living without a home – they will want to help.”
Hannah does speaking engagements to raise awareness about this problem and sells bracelets and scarves with proceeds being donated to people in need. I happen to have a soft spot for ladybugs, but even without them in the picture, this is an organization I'll definitely support.
Go check out The Ladybug Foundation, you'll be inspired by the difference Hannah is making.
~*~*~ May you always remember to dance in the rain, and may you have plenty of ladybugs beside you! ~*~*~
