If an 11yr.old can do this we all can

My 11yr old niece LOVES pets she started walking dogs a few months back and has saved all the moeny she has made for her trip to seaworld to swim with the dolphins :) which she has wanted to do for years.

Well she heard about the pets involed with KATRINA and has now dotanted all of her moeny she has saved to the resue of the animals .

I asked her about seaworld and she said auntie dolphins will be at seaworld when i grow up but these animals might not be if i don't help them.

She brought tears to my eyes I'M SO PROUD OF HER !!!!:D

So i think if an 11yr old can help i think we all can even a few dollars make a diffince. :D

By the way she saved $679.34 and did'nt even blink when giving that to them :D I'M SO PROUD OF HER !!

She's an example for ALL of us.

There are some really great kids out there and she's at the top of my list.

Her parents are too be congratulated for raising such a big hearted person. It's definitely a rare thing too see anymore.

That is a such beautiful thing for her to do. i'm sure you and everyone around her has inspired her in such a way that she can do that, and has the spirit to try to change the world in small ways.
That's awesome:D

Thank you all She wanted me to tell everybody that She's having a yard sale this weekend to raise more moeny.

We contacted the newspaper and they agreed that they would put it in the FRONT PAGE.

There also going to put the yard sale on the front page as well so hopefully she can get a few more people in

She has made HUGE signs to put up and also we went to walmart and got some gift cards $10.00 dononations and she going to sell them if they give $20.00or more they'll get a gift card in return
:) Her idea was people will be more willing to help maybe if they get something back.

I asked her what if they don't all sell ? And she replied that if they don't then she will go to walmart and buy some doggie and kitty beds and toys.

She makes me more proud of her by the minute.
Her heart is filled with love for all animals.
I'm going to give her a big sqeeze all the time now Even though she's only 11
I've told her she's a Much BIGGER Role model then most adults are and the cerleberties have NOTHING on her :D

She truely is incredible! I cannot believe that an 11 yr old would have the selflessness to do such a kind and loving thing. I wish her the best of luck with the gift cards, and God Bless her!

She really is a bigger role model than ANY celebrity, or adult!
