Small volunteer, big heart

by Rachel

Watch video of Maya on ABC Action NewsThis story on ABC Action News in Tampa Bay made the rounds at the Easter Seals headquarters office one afternoon. We were all captivated by this adorable 6-year-old volunteer. She wanted to help out, so her mother called several organizations before Easter Seals Florida said yes.

ABC Action News anchor John Thomas talked with Mya, who reads to the kids at Easter Seals with expression in her voice and a smile on her face. She’s collected over 800 books and transformed a storage area into a library where the kids at Easter Seals gather around her in a rocking chair — her feet don’t touch the floor.

I hope you’ll take a moment to listen to Mya’s story and that it inspires you. It’s proof that there’s a way for everyone to give back, no matter how young or old you may be.
