Inspirational Kids: Doing a Lot When You’re Little, Part III

November 8, 2008

 

“Hi, I’m Zoe.  If you’re an adult, go away.  If you’re a kid, come closer.”

I have to admit I ignored this admonition from 9-yr. old Zoe, who is spearheading a “kid-powered revolution” on behalf of a school in Tanzania. I watched the whole video with my 4-yr old daughter. She saw how Zoe raised $200 holding a lemonade stand with her friends and collected books and toys for the school.  What a dynamo.

Want to be inspired the next generation?  Want to see some great ideas for getting young kids involved in philanthropy?  Want to help your child connect with a child in Africa in a very personal and meaningful way? 

Check out the Kids section of Epic Change for all of the above.  (And watch for Zoe to get her own Disney show. This kid is charismatic in a way you don’t see in most 9-yr. olds.)

Now I’m off to help my 4-yr. old daughter draw a picture to send to Tanzania.
