One day eight year old Hannah Taylor from Winnipeg, Manitoba was on her way home from school, when she saw a few small children eating out of a garbage can. She was deeply affected by the experience, and shortly after started collecting money in her class for the homeless. As Hannah explains it: “I couldn’t stand it anymore… I kept asking my mom why there were homeless people and Mom said if I couldn’t stop worrying about it, then maybe I could do something about it.”

She came up with the idea to create Ladybug jars and placed them in businesses around the city to collect money. This small act from an 8 year old girl quickly grew to a countrywide charity providing food and shelter for the homeless. The convictions of this young lady who felt that she could make a difference have been a great inspiration to me. This is why I have decided to donate to the LadyBug Foundation Inc.
