This week, Jaclyn meets with teenage activist and actress, Abriella Ruby. They discuss Abriella's path to founding her charity, Love Conquers Dayton, ways to support young people as they navigate unkindness in their world, and what kindness means to the next generation.
Abriella is a 16-year-old change-maker passionate about helping others. She started Love Conquers Dayton when she was 12 years old, in hopes of giving a few care packs to the unhoused people in her community. That small gift of sharing quickly gathered steam, allowing her to give well over $50,000 in care packs over the last four years. Her work has garnered attention from Good Morning America and celebrities such as Jessica Vosk and Allison Janney. The board of Love Conquers Dayton consists of only teenagers, hoping to bring kindness to their community.
