mean, you teed me up so nicely with that introduction. But you know, as you mentioned, I've been doing this work for a long time, and it's evolved over time, because the needs and the interests of kids have changed. But really, our origin story is about this one little kid that I met 20 years ago who had a desire that was not being met. And you know, I would be working in these shelters and different places and meeting tons of kids, and I started to ask them this question in a perfect world, because I wanted to hear from them. And I realized we were hearing so much from the adults about the needs of the communities and the facilities I was at, but we weren't hearing from the kids so much, and so this is really where this was born. And you know, the kids at the time would tell me the usual things where they wanted, you know, toys, a Game Boy. Back in the day, they wanted trip to Disneyland, you know. But one little boy said, in his perfect world, all he wanted was a blue crayon. And I thought, Okay, well, I need him to think bigger. I want him to understand like I can help him make something happen, get something that he wants. And he really kept focusing on this blue crayon. And what I found out when I tracked down his mom, they were living in a domestic violence situation, and she and her son had left in the middle of the night, and she grabbed the things that she thought were most important to him, so the Tonka truck and the teddy bear and his box of crayons, and she left behind the blue crayon. And in that moment, you know, this mom who's in a she's then, you know, in a face full of tears, and I'm in a face full of tears, because we realized one that, you know, she believed that they were now safe and away from the trouble they were in, and that all his problems were solved. And this little boy was holding this in that he had a void. And the problem with all of this is that no one had ever asked. And so I thought like, wow, this could have been solved a long time ago, a kid's perfect world is not so out of reach, if it is just about a blue crayon in that sense. And so it really propelled me towards this. Like, how do we just engage kids in solutions? So whether they're in a shelter, whether at school, they're in a family, wherever they are, like, how do we leverage youth voice? And as I continue to ask that question, first of all, it can be challenging to get to draw out kids to talk about things that might be challenging, like that. So I approached it from a place of art, and I thought, if I can give them artistic avenues to express to me what they would like to see change in their world. And so for a kid, their world could be their home life, it could be their school, it could be their community, it could be the broader world. I started drawing these things out through simple things like, Let's build, let's, let's make a change the world banner, or let's create wish boxes and then see what the kids put in there, because then it opens an opportunity for dialog. And it was a big void that wasn't happening. This is 20 years ago, where, you know, old school parenting, teaching all that was just like, we're going to talk at you. We're going to tell you what's happening, versus including them. And the more I did that, the more profound the messaging came back to me. You know, there was a little boy who was in another shelter who, when he was making his change the world banner started to draw a house. And I made the silly assumption that he was drawing what he would want, which is a house for himself. And he corrected me when he stood up and said that his change the world banner said, I would like to buy homes for all the people that don't have them. And when I asked him, you know little Jalen, who's nine or 10 years old, why did you think about how to help somebody else get a home when you yourself don't have a home? And he said very simply, like, I already know how it feels, what you know, to not have a home, and I wouldn't want any other kid to feel that way. And so there I am in my face of tears again, because I thought like kids are kind of wise and full of empathy that we're not tapping into. And so because a kid who's in a certain you don't have to be in a position of power or wealth to the to your point earlier, to give. And so he and his giving is really heart driven, empathy driven because he has experienced it himself. So I explained to Jalen, you know, we can't buy homes for everyone, but what can we do? What would have made you feel better when you came to this shelter? And he said, I would have liked to somebody to give me a note, you know, welcome note, maybe some art supplies and a stuffy and so he we created Jalen welcome welcome bags, so every kid that came to the shelter from then on would get this in receipt before you know, upon getting there, you know that somebody else knows your name, you know that someone has thought about you. So you're not just being shuffled around in your circumstances, but you really feel welcome. And it it really was so impactful to me that a kid in that circumstance would think broader like that. So that's propelled our mission all these years to really listen to the kids and see what is compelling them to act and be of service.
