"First of all, this is not a 'responsibility.' It's a calling. No one can force you to give your money away to someone. It's not something you must do. But it's something you should do. Why? Because everyone deserves a better life." -Hallie
These are words from Hallie herself. She was 11-and with wisdom beyond her years, she knew that everyone deserves a better life. Hallie saved $398 for African children. Her parents found it in her dresser after she died. That's compassion and generosity.
Given the chance, kids dive into philanthropy because of their natural energy, enthusiasm, creativity, and compassion. And when kids help out, they learn both practical skills and the bigger lessons that service teaches: leadership, team building, kindness-and the powerful (and empowering!) feeling of helping others.*
