A Little Girl’s Small Solution to a Big Problem

Waking Times

Video – Nine year old Hailey Fort has been helping Cook County’s homeless since she was 5. Her latest projects are building mobile sleeping shelters just big enough for one adult and planting food for them.

The community has been supportive of Hailey’s efforts. The cost to build one shelter, her mom said, is about $300, but the reason that price is so low is because she gets many items donated. The walls are made of pallets, which are stuffed with recycled denim insulation. The structure has a shingled roof, drywall, wood siding, and vinyl flooring. The house will have window curtains, a solar-powered lamp and most importantly, a lock on the front door.

You can support Hailey and donate towards her project on her GoFundMe page – a little will go a long way!
