Humans of Downey - Lori

"I don't normally fight, but if I had to I would fight for animals and kids. There's no particular incident in my life that moved me that way. It's just that they move my heart and they are so vulnerable and innocent. If anyone were to harm them, it would just make me mad. They are so innocent and they don't deserve for anyone to hurt them. Even when I see a video on YouTube of abuse of animals or children, it just really gets to me. When I take pictures of them it moves me inside.

"One practical way this works out in my life is that I sponsor two children through World Vision. One of the girls is from India and she is 18. I've sponsored her since she was 5 years old. I just started sponsoring another girl that lives in the Philippines and she is 4. I always wanted to sponsor a child. When I was little I would see the commercials on TV and I'd say, 'I want to do that some day. I want to give to someone that has nothing because I'm so fortunate and blessed.'"
