On the 'green carpet' with Kind Traveler and Animal Hero Kids. Hip-hop mogul & passionate animal rights activist Russell Simmons honors young animal advocates with compelling stories of courage at the 2nd Annual Animal Hero Kids Awards Show on December 2, 2014.
Hosted at MUSE School, a private, nonprofit founded by Suzy Amis-Cameron and Rebecca Amis, the youth-inspired event honored and spotlighted the winners of five Animal Hero Kids award categories.
The winners, flown from various parts of the country, were recognized for exhibiting extraordinary acts of kindness in helping animals – including a teen who rescued a dog and disabled man from a burning apartment and a young radio show host who produces a weekly show about cruelty-free vegan lifestyle and animal rights.
“Animal Hero Kids Awards are important so that kids learn compassion and connection to their true spirits – which are compassionate. If we connect our heart to the animals, then we will make more conscious decisions every single time. And so, to internalize that your life and the animal’s life are the same, it’s possible to feel connected to the animals and all living beings,” shared Simmons.
Other celebrity guests included Renee Olstead, Sierra McCormick, and Bonnie-Jill Laflin, whom all shared their passion and enthusiasm in promoting the importance of animal rights within society.
