Nine-year-old girls like vagrants

Every kind of travel has its specific meaning. The scenery on the road, the customs outside the country, and the inner gains are always different from person to person. Life is actually a trip, different experiences, different experiences.

Haileg, a nine-year-old girl from Washington, USA? Ford spent four years growing vegetables and building a wooden house to support the homeless. It sounds like an incredible experience, but she really had an amazing journey of love.

Wandering, the heart follows nature.

"I want to grow my own fruits and vegetables for the homeless!"

Haley Ford is from Bremerton Island, Washington, USA. Four years ago, after visiting the grocery store with her mother, she met billy ray who hadn't eaten for several days.

Billy ray is a veteran. Unfortunately, he lost a leg in the war, so he became a tramp.

Haley, then only five years old, asked her mother, "Can you buy him a sandwich?" Mother helped Haley complete her love. The tramp shed tears of excitement, and Haley warmed her like an angel.

Then the loving Haley helped many homeless people and provided them with a lot of clothes and food. However, due to the limited financial ability of the family, her mother finally told her helplessly: "We are not so rich and have no ability to help everyone."

Stubborn Haley cried. She said, "I don't have the money to buy them food. I'll grow it myself!" " I want to grow my own fruits and vegetables for the homeless! "

Therefore, while many children around us can only use their holidays to go to the suburbs or rural areas to experience farmhouse music, Haley has used all his spare time to become a real farmer.

She persuaded her parents to turn the back garden into a vegetable garden, bought several big boxes, soil and fertilizer, and started planting her own fruits and vegetables.

She has no experience in planting. When she finishes her homework at night, she will learn planting knowledge with a thick book. It's really cute and beautiful to look at it carefully with glasses!

▲ Haili's planned square foot vegetable garden planting

She also asked her grandfather about square foot gardening, which refers to small-scale but intensive planting.

▲ Sow carefully in the earthen basin.

▲ She carefully turned over the soil, watered it and wiped out every vegetable.

▲ Name your vegetable garden "Harvest"

A month later, she finally harvested the first batch of food: half a bag of carrots, soybeans and potatoes. Happy Haley gave these vegetables to Billy, a street friend, and said that he would continue to work hard to grow vegetables.

Her little behavior touched her neighbors. Neighbors also joined her planting operation and gave Hailey part of their yard as a vegetable garden.

▲ Haley's growing vegetable garden

There are more and more kinds of fruits and vegetables in Haili Garden, such as cucumber, pea, broccoli, cauliflower, strawberry and blueberry.

▲ She should carefully weigh every harvest.

She washed every harvested food, put it in a bag and distributed it to the homeless in the street. Many local vagrants and Haley became good friends to help Haley manage the vegetable garden.

▲ Make vegetables into pickles for easy storage.

Haili distributes food to the local slums, which is a place that adults try to avoid, but Haili is welcomed by everyone here.

"I want to try building a house!"

A fruit and vegetable for four years. Haley fed the tramps in the town, but when she saw that there were still many people sleeping in the street, she said to her mother, "They shouldn't sleep on the side of the road. Everyone should have a home. " Mother told her helplessly but realistically: "Even if we can feed some people, it is impossible to give them a house to live in." Her stubbornness and waywardness made her challenge again: "I want to try to build a house." "

So Hailey immediately drew the design of the simple hut according to her idea.

Accompanied by her family, Haley went to the building materials market to buy materials. Lowe's, a local building materials supplier, only charged her half the fee after knowing her purpose of buying materials.

▲ Haili, who started work immediately after returning to China.

Hailey looked up a lot of information and finally decided to use recycled denim and wood as building materials and denim as wall interlayer to make the hut warmer.

▲ Everyone in the town enthusiastically provided her with recyclable denim and building materials.

While other children are still playing with building blocks, Haley has built a house with knives and guns.

▲ Learn to use automatic screw locks.

▲ Reinforce the roof

▲ Fixed windows

Other children can't count addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. She has been lying in the house she built to measure the size.

On the day when the hut was finally completed, 23 neighbors and strangers came to help her move the house to the trailer and help Haley deliver the house to where she needed it.

Haili, who is full of love, is not satisfied. She decided to build more shacks to give all the vagrants in the street a place to sleep. Lloyd's told Haley that they would continue to provide her with raw materials at low prices.

Haili's "small house plan" has been widely concerned. With everyone's help, Hailey built the 1 1 cabin, where homeless people can rest at any time.

"I can't help everyone, but love can."

▲ "Love must win" slogan

Only 9-year-old Haley used her wisdom and courage to accomplish what others thought impossible. Her story spread gradually, and more and more people knew her kindness.

A lady named Katie, knowing about Haley's charity, donated female products to those female vagrants and said, "You are always welcome to supplement your products".

Many charities donated money and materials to Haley after learning her story.

She used the money to buy many gifts and supplies for street children, and also bought many books.

Haili also listed the relief materials needed by the homeless on the Internet. In the winter of 20 15, she collected 109 warm coats for the children in the town.

After receiving the coat, Haley called every school nearby and asked if any students needed winter clothes. She works as hard as an adult and her kindness warms us all.

When asked what Hailey wants to be when she grows up, the 9-year-old girl will say, "I want to be the administrator of the homeless cabin."

There are always people who argue about how much celebrities donate, and there are always adults who tell their children, "We can't help so many people." But Haley Ford, with a stubborn and kind heart, set an example for us-you can change the world as long as you have the heart, no matter how small your strength is.
