Avery Jenkins is an 11-year-old girl who helps others. She started “Avery’s Helpful Hair Kits” in Illinois. Her organization gives hair care products to foster kids with curly or textured hair. These products help them care for their hair and feel good about themselves.

When Avery was 6, her mom asked her to give some hair products to a foster child. At that time, Avery learned that some kids found it hard to take care of their hair. This made them feel less confident. Avery loves her own curly hair and likes trying new styles. She wanted other kids, especially foster kids, to feel the same way.

At first, Avery began with an online fundraising (资金筹集) page (called GoFundMe). With people’s support, the project grew quickly. She used donated money and things to make hair kits (工具套装). These kits have shampoo, conditioner, gel (发胶) and special brushes for curly hair. Many foster kids only have ordinary brushes, and this makes taking care of their hair much harder.

However, Avery’s biggest challenge is running out of some products. Sometimes donated things are not balanced. For example, they had no shampoo at a recent kit-packing party. But the best part for Avery is helping others. She feels happy to make a difference. Many foster care centers say kids love the kits. After the first donation, some kids even ran to the bathroom to try the products right away!
