A 9-year-old girl named, Maya
Delgado, started an art scholarship foundation called “The
HeARTS of Maya.” It is fabulous that a little girl could create
something so important. She’s only 9 years old! She capitalized
on the Pokemon Go craze to raise money for kids and teens
interested in the arts. Her own love of art was what drove her.
There is a really nice park in the
Dallas area called, “Addison Circle Park.” Her plan was to take
over the park, and boy did she ever. Her team took over the park
as hosts of the Pokemon Go Music Festival. Very cool and a great
name for the event. There was no entrance fee, but Pokemon-themed
items were available for sale. That is where she was able to
raise funds. All proceeds of the festival went towards the
HeARTS of Maya foundation’s scholarships.
Again, she’s only 9 years old, so
let’s give it up for the ingenious little girl, Maya! |
