Meet Ava Joy: Making a Difference to Spread Love and Hope

June 11, 2020

Don’t ever think you’re too young or too old to change the world. We have been inspired by the continuing efforts of a young Massachusetts teen, Ava Joy, who has used her artistic talents and giant heart to spread love while also raising money for those in need. She is one of our true Ambassadors of Kindness!

Ava has devised many projects over the years to fundraise for special causes including homelessness, sick children, and animal shelters. But watching the news during the COVID-19 pandemic inspired her to do something for frontline workers in her state.

With her mom’s help, Ava created a red, white and blue beaded bracelet and the Love America Brands website to raise money to support frontline workers through the Massachusetts COVID-19 Relief Fund. She is close to reaching her $2000 goal and may add other products to her brand soon.

We love wearing our bracelets as a reminder of Ava and how good deeds have far-reaching effects!

Sing for Hope’s Virtual Movement Classes Reach Healthcare and Adult Living Centers

June 11, 2020

Our friends at Sing for Hope may be best known for providing pop-up pianos to neighborhoods around New York City, but their healing arts programs in schools and in adult care facilities are a huge part of the organization’s mission.

While the COVID-19 response prompted the halt of in-person workshops, arts-based healing workshops continue virtually with many of Sing for Hope’s partner organizations like nursing homes and senior centers.

Find out more about Sing for Hope’s resources for educators and healthcare workers, too! We’re so proud of Sing for Hope for keeping the music (and art) alive during the toughest of days.

She’s The First – Race for Equality

September 16, 2015

Jharana and Sirjana are two She’s The First Scholars from Nepal, and they have organized a 5K to raise awareness about working towards equality for girls.  This event took place on August 26, and this coincided with the 95th Anniversary of American women winning the right to vote.  To make the run more personal, each participant wore a tag on their backs in an effort to raise awareness for something that they believe in.
