Another Child Activist-Hannah Taylor

            No matter whether you are an adult or a child, we should be ashamed of ourselves for not doing anything to stop social injustices. Adults should be the role models to the children, but what are some of them doing? Think of child labor. They force children to work, and only give few money for their hard work. They even killed a 12-year-old boy for just saying that's wrong! Is that a good role model for the children? Even 5-year-old girl felt that social injustice is a wrong thing and created a foundation. This young girl's name is Hannah Taylor, and she created the 'Ladybug Foundation' when she was 8-years-old.
           When Hannah was 5-year-old, she saw a men who was eating out of a garbage can on winter day. And she wondered, 'Why? If everyone shared what they have, could that cure homelessness?' That was the moment she got interested about homelessness and hunger. When she became 8, she founded 'Ladybug Foundation'. Through the Ladybug Foundation, she could have speeches at more than 175 schools, organizations and events.
          I was very ashamed of myself when I read an article about her. In the age of 12, what am I doing during a 8-year-old girl create a foundation for poor people? We can know something from Hannah Taylor's actions to stop social injustices. It's the fact that there's many ways to help others whether you're young or old.
