“I think that it’s really important for kids to give back to other people in need – especially sick children – because we have so much to be grateful for,” says Sofia, who currently serves as the NYC Chapter Junior Committee Secretary.
For Juliana, being a part of Kids for Kids is about “what you can do for others rather than just yourself. You should extend it throughout everybody, especially the kids who are less fortunate than we are.”
Both Juliana and Sofia continue to impress the Kids for Kids Community and their own family. Dad proudly beamed “what’s most impressive to me is that they understand it. They see it. And without motivating them, they’ve taken the effort to drum up their own events,” when asked about his daughters’ accomplishments on the committee.
Both Juliana and Sofia have instrumental members of our Junior Committee Members and continue to lead by example for the younger members. Most importantly, they have development lifelong friendships through the Junior Committee. “We are more a family now than anything else,” Juliana said with a smile.
