Monday April 4, 2011 – Down Syndrome Partnership of Tarrant County Volunteer Appreciation Dinner
I was very pleased and honored to be called back to attend the Down Syndrome Partnership of Tarrant County’s Volunteer Appreciation Dinner! Volunteering as Miss Teen Dallas County at their annual Buddy Walk truly touched my heart and it was so remarkable to be recognized and called back as Miss Teen Texas International. The Down Syndrome Partnership of Tarrant County benefits the lives of people with Down syndrome and their families by providing information, social and educational activities and support designed to help achieve the universally desired goals of self-fulfillment, pride in one’s achievements and acceptance and inclusion in the community. With delicious pizza, extraordinary people, and a great organization, it was definitely a memorable night.
Tuesday April 5, 2011 – TOMS One Day Without Shoes Walk
Walking from my high school to downtown Cedar Hill with no shoes truly enabled me to walk in the footsteps of millions of impoverished children across the world. Spreading Poverty Awareness, I proudly support the TOMS One Day Without Shoes. For every pair of TOMS shoes purchased, one pair is donated to a child in need. With just the few miles from the high school to my destination scraped and cut my feet; I cannot imagine how millions of children walk daily without shoes. Feet enable mobility and shoes are an important necessity that we often times take for granted.
