Siblings Supportive of Mom, also Compassionate Do-Gooders

Siblings Avana and Angelina are also dealing with the challenges of their mom undergoing cancer treatment, and they continue to be role models for others as well as exhibit exemplary leadership. Avana is an animal lover and very compassionate; she even saved an endangered toad from a storm drain using her STEAM/STEM engineering knowledge. After nursing the toad back to health and releasing it, the toad kept returning to the back of their house. Avana is very good with animals, and it seems as if they can tell she has a great loving heart. After realizing the effect humans have on multiple species, she started cleaning up the neighborhood, helping ecosystems thrive.

Angelina is really good with young children and babies, and they seem to follow her like she’s a mother hen. She is a leader and can take charge in any situation. Angelina is resilient and always has a smile on her face. Her friends call her “The Leader” of the group, and she seems to keep all their heads on straight.

Avana and Angelina were honored by Kids Wish Network as Heroes of the Month.
