Amiri Horn is making a difference. When heard that the people of Haiti were suffering, he decided to act. Not only did he gather up all of the band aids in the house to send, he convinced his mom to let him open a lemonade stand. Five months later, he’s raised over $3,700 for Mercy Corp (a pretty darn awesome organization), and is working toward raising $5,000.
Oh yeah, and he’s 3-years old.
Along with raising money, Amiri has been featured is Willamette Week’s “Best People” issue. He is, after all Mercy Corps’ youngest fundraiser.

This little guy is already awesome.
