There’s truly nothing as precious and powerful as the heart of a child. At the age of 5, Hailey Fort began to notice issues with the hungry and homeless in the city. Her desire to help them began to grow. She started out by giving one homeless friend, Edward, a sandwich. From there, and with the help of her mother, she constructed a successful garden for feeding the homeless in the city. Isn’t that amazing? That’s nothing compared to what she’s doing now.

At the age of 9, Hailey and her mother are now building 8’ x 4’ mobile shelters for the homeless. These shelters are built complete with windows and insulation!

The first one is for her dear friend, Edward, but she isn’t stopping there. Her goal for 2015 is to produce 250 lbs of food with her garden, create at least 12 shelters, and provide other important needs for the city’s homeless.
