Byanka wanted to honor a very special person who made a major difference in her life as our Hero this week. She writes…
Dear Kix,
I’d like to nominate my best friend Chauntel for Hero of the Week. She’s my guardian angel who’s been there for me through thick and thin!
I’ve had a lot of sad times in my life, and she’s helped me to see that I had a bright future with wonderful surprises and adventures. She made me believe that I had so much to live for, and now I feel like I have someone who’s always looking out for me.
I really love Chauntel and because of people like her kids like me feel they have a place in this world and someone to confide in.
Thanks for reading this and hopefully someone listening will take the time to talk to a kid that’s struggling.
Sincerely,
Byanka
