"Create a path you want others to follow...Leave your footprint behind"
The benefits of helping
others or working with a worthy cause can be one of the most rewarding
experiences of your lifetime. The Footprint Campaign is a service project that I started to
inspire others to leave their mark on society. We utilize footprints to thank volunteers
and inspire service.
At the age of 7 years old,
I started my first volunteer project. Ever since then, giving back to the
community has always been a priority. I have
had the privilege to volunteer with over 100 different organizations over the
years, including Best Buddies International, The Austin Shepherd Foundation, United Cerebral Palsy, Lighthouse for the Blind, Cooperative
Feeding, and Children’s Miracle Network, to name a few. Those who volunteer put
their hands, minds and most of all their hearts in the service they provide for
others. A simple gesture can go a long way.
Through The Footprint Campaign, I am shining a
spotlight on those who give and I am sharing countless examples of ways that
others can be involved. My goal is to give out thousands of
footprints to children all over our country. I want to convey the message that
you are never too young to leave your volunteer footprint on your community!
