Cali, Colombia

“We Can Be Heroes” Campaign

For this adventure, I partnered with Latin Diversity Network and CNN Hero of the Year, Jeison Aristizabal, to paint Jeison’s foundation in Colombia. We also donated games, shoes, books, school supplies and funded lunch for the day. Meeting Jeison and his mother were very powerful experiences for me.

Jeison was a real life superhero and continues to serve his community despite being diagnosed with cerebral palsy. When speaking with his mother, I learned that she had always engrained a sense of responsibility in him that he could and should help others even in times when he himself needed help. I was extremely moved by this sense of compassion and have taken it with me into every endeavor I am part of.
