Meet Devon Haas!

Today's question is: who is Devon Haas?

Don't let this little girl fool you, behind of this cute little face there's a girl with a big voice, and she has no fear to using it.
One day I was on the internet and found Devon's twitter page, I started to read them and I remember I was amazed to know that she's only 8. 
Yesterday we had a conversation about politic, yes, you've heard right, a 20 years old girl had a conversation about politic with a 8 years old girl. 
And then I realized how special that kid was.



 Introducing Devon Haas:

At first sight you may think that she's Nina Dobrev's little sister (I thought that at the beggining) I won't blame you, they are so alike.  

And both have a special place in Ian's heart, haven't they?  

Devon's 8 years old, actress, model, humanist, activist, Kids Army founder.. And the apple of Ian's eyes (Writer's note).


The Kids Army


But what makes Devon Haas a special child is that she has been using her voice to a great cause. Everything began when Devon contacted ISF to make a donation, she donated her tooth fairy money because she wanted to change the world, but she knew that she didn’t have a voice. So, ISF gave to her a voice and a free pass to make her change. What they couldn't imagine was the acception that Devon had, she really did her voice be listened. Together with ISF, she created the Kids Army, a place where kids do have a voice! There they share their love to this planet and their care to the animals, they are really focused to heal this world, the world we (the adults people) screwed up. I said that and I also admit there are small cares we take for granted, we can't blame God, not even the mother nature for give us back what we did to her.

Recently, the East Coast faced the devastating Sandy, the hurricane that destroyed many places and left over than 110 deaths, since its begins in Caribbean. Hurricanes, tsunamis, earthquakes are nothing but the result of our lately actions. If we had the same spirit that these children have today, we could have avoided this. But, thank God there are kids like Devon that are caring for this planet, for their future.

I wish I had her initiative when I was 8, but it's never too late, we still can make the change, we just need to follow this small steps.
