To honor her best friend who died of cancer nearly 10 years ago. Emma decided to serve those in Orange Town who are less lucky than she is.

She began with the simple idea of collecting donated Build-A-Bears. the popular stuffed (填充的) animal that is made by children themselves in the stores* workshops. Emma then took the donated bears to a hotel in California and gave them as gi發(fā)ts to the homeless children there during the holiday season.

With donations now at more than 100 bears a year, Emma and volunteers host Beary Merry Christmas events every year. Volunteers at events not only give out the bears, but also clothing, meals, and other supplies.

"I love making relationships with the people I serve,' Emma said. “The thanks they have, hearing their stories and seeing how happy they are. it's so cool.”

Not wanting to limit the giving to just the holiday months, Emma now hosts other events for Valentine's Day. Mother's Day and Halloween, providing the chance for her volunteer team to make a difference throughout the year.

Future plans for Emma include establishing a public food pantry (儲藏室）and providing a self-awareness (自我意識) class for students on her campus who will soon attend college.

Heading to college herself in the fall. Emma is looking to stay local and continue to help out in her town. In fact, she was recently recognized by the Disneyland Resort as a "Dreamer & Doer” for her efforts in improving her community, along with 32 other Orange Town high school students.

The smiles on the faces of those she serves remain both her motivation and her reward. "These charity efforts are such a big part of my life," Emma said. “All of it has taught me to be more compassionate (有同情心的）and to look out for the needs of others before my own.”
