- Zoe Terry | Zhive
15 years old from Miami, Florida Zoe Terry Zodiac Sign: Libra Favorite Food: Kung Salad What is their mission/cause? Helping girls of color realize their self-worth. How is she doing it? Zoe collects and distributes dolls along the African American, Hispanic, and Caribbean spectrum to girls in need in order to inspire self-love for girls of all skin tones. Fun Fact: She is mesmerized by sand. Inspirational quote: “Nothing is impossible. The word itself says, I’m possible.” Date of recording: May 27, 2022 Zoe has made major accomplishments at a very young age. At fifteen, she founded and became the CEO of Zoe's Dolls. She had the ambition to start her own non-profit company that promoted equality and self-love for young girls of all races and ethnicities. Walking down the toy aisle, Zoe recalls that she never saw a doll that represented her skin tone, hair texture, or the true essence of a black girl. When Zoe was only 6 years old, she wanted to buy dolls of color to donate to girls who did not have that representation. Since Zoe began donating dolls of color, she has given away over 50,000 dolls in seven different countries! Zoe hopes that by donating dolls, she can make others realize that beauty comes from your contributions to the world, not from your skin tone.

Sandwell Zoe Terry is a girl who has been making a powerful amount of change from a very young age. Fifteen- year-old Zoe Terry is the Founder and CEO of Zoe’s Dolls, a non-profit organization that inspires self-love for girls of color and brings dolls to little girls all over the world. The concept behind Zoe’s Dolls began right before Zoe’s 6th birthday. Zoe asked friends and family to buy dolls, especially along the African American, Hispanic and Caribbean spectrum, so that Zoe could donate them to little girls who needed toys for Christmas. Why did Zoe specifically request dolls of color? Zoe officially founded her organization at the age of five in Miami, Florida. In the years since she has been spreading self-love and empowering girls of color both domestically and internationally. Her mission remains strong: to let Brown and Black girls know that they are special, beautiful, and important, regardless of what anyone may say. In pursuing her mission, Zoe has traveled to both Africa and India to distribute dolls to girls in need. “When I was giving out dolls,” Zoe reflected on her experience in an orphanage in India, “the girls were surprised that I hugged them because of the caste system they have in India. The beauty standard there is that if you’re darker, you’re not beautiful.” Zoe described the experience as very emotional. “In India, colorism is horrible there,” Zoe explained. “No one on the billboards reflect the people that live in India.” Consequently, seeing dolls that reflected these young girls' image and having people hug and accept them was incredibly impactful. Today, Zoe continues to bolster her message of diversity and inclusion, hosting events, and speaking publicly about the importance for little girls of color to see themselves represented authentically. Ten years since beginning her doll-donation journey, Zoe has given out over 50,000 dolls in seven different countries, inspiring self-worth and confidence in Black and Brown girls around the world. Currently, Zoe persists in taking a stand against bullying, misogyny, and viewpoints that are, as she describes, “holding girls back and holding girls down.” Her message not only pertains to realizing your outer beauty but recognizing your inner strength as well. “Beauty comes from the contributions you make to the world,” Zoe affirms. “No matter how you identify, you’re beautiful within.” Zoe continued, “Utilize your greatness. Understand your worth. Understand your purpose. Understand that you are going somewhere in life. Don’t let what people say limit your view and what you can do, because if you really have that mentality that you can do anything, then you can do anything.” We here at Zhive emphatically agree. You can learn more about Zoe’s mission and her organization Zoe’s Dolls here . The school Zoe attends is predominantly white; she recounted that as a child, almost no one looked like her. At a young age, Zoe was bullied by her classmates for the texture of her hair and the color of her skin. Her mother encouraged her not to be angry, but to channel this energy into bettering her world so other girls of color would not have to experience similar pain. It was then that Zoe realized Brown and Black girls needed to see themselves reflected more in order to raise their self-esteem. Zoe further explained in an interview with EveryGirl, “receiving a doll that reflects your image, especially in a time where your image is often looked down upon or isn’t celebrated as it should be – receiving a doll that reflects your image is so impactful.” As a child, Zoe didn’t recall seeing herself adequately represented in the doll aisle. She didn’t see dolls that reflected her, her hair texture, or her skin tone. The majority of dolls were very generic looking – they had the same hair, the same body, and other features as the White dolls, just with darker skin tones. “I don’t think that really captures the beauty of Black people and Black girls,” Zoe explained. There’s a disconnect in the toy industry, she stated, which doesn't “capture the essence of a Black girl.” Zoe summed it up: “I didn’t see beauty within the doll because the doll didn’t look like me.” “It was a problem,” Zoe declared, “and I think that was another one of the reasons why I needed to start Zoe’s Dolls.” Want to be featured?

- Hollis Belger | Zhive
18 years old from Marin County, California Hollis Belger Favorite Food: Hamburger What is their mission/cause? To raise funds for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital through her organization, Juggling for Jude How is she doing it? She juggles her soccer ball in exchange for donations every day of the summer. Hollis juggles to ensure children with cancer are treated free of charge. Fun Fact: She can name all 50 states and their capitals. Inspirational quote: Success is not built on your accomplishment but grounded in what you do for others. Date of recording: August 2, 2023 Hollis Belger, a remarkable 18-year-old, is the founder of Juggling For Jude, a fundraiser that aims to raise funds for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital through soccer juggling. Her inspiring journey began when she was just nine years old. During her first summer, her goal was to raise $1,000 by juggling her soccer ball. However, she managed to raise over $33,000 – that was when she knew it was going to be a long-term project. Besides her incredible juggling feats, Hollis is a passionate advocate for youth in philanthropy. Through platforms like her Ted Talk, public speaking engagements at schools, leadership conferences, and St. Jude events, she emphasizes the importance of fostering purpose among adolescents through philanthropic endeavors. To date, Hollis has been able to raise over $750,000, dedicating her time and energy to perfecting her juggling skills while also making a difference in the lives of children battling cancer. Hollis Belger All Categories Play Video Play Video 14:11 Hollis Full Length Interview Play Video Play Video 02:00 Hollis on Traveling Play Video Play Video 06:35 Hollis on Culture Play Video Play Video 01:47 Hollis on Wellness (Advice for friends) Play Video Play Video 04:54 Hollis on Wellness (Difficult Days) About Hollis By Juliet Philips In a world where young people are often stereotyped as self-absorbed and disconnected, Hollis Belger defies the stereotype. At just 18 years old, Hollis has embarked on a mission to combat pediatric cancer through her organization, Juggling for Jude . With her incredible juggling skills, unwavering determination, and compassionate heart, Hollis is inspiring us all. Hollis's journey started when she discovered her talent for juggling at a young age. It quickly became more than just a hobby; it became a means for her to give back to those in need. She combined her love for juggling with her desire to help children with cancer, and Juggling for Jude was born. Since its inception, Juggling for Jude has gained widespread attention, touching hearts and inspiring countless individuals. Through her juggling performances, Hollis has leveraged her skills to raise funds for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital , a leading institution in the treatment and research of childhood cancer. Over the years, Hollis has managed to raise over $700,000 to fund life-saving research at St. Jude. Every dollar she raises brings us one step closer to finding cures for childhood cancers and providing hope to families facing the unimaginable. What is truly remarkable about Hollis's journey is her ability to inspire others along the way. Her positivity and infectious energy captivate audiences of all ages, galvanizing them to join in her cause. She has created a ripple effect of compassion and activism, encouraging individuals to step up and make a difference, no matter their age or talents. Hollis's impact extends far beyond fundraising; she has become a beacon of hope for children battling cancer and a symbol of empowerment for young people worldwide. Since beginning her journey, her original project has grown into many different avenues of impact. Hollis’s endeavors have evolved to include being an advocate for youth in philanthropy through public speaking at local schools, cultivating sustainable philanthropic practice amongst youth, and participating in social and educational policy reform. When asked what she wishes adults knew about teenagers, Hollis responded, “I wish that adults understood that teenagers and children are capable of more than they think.” Hollis also mentions the importance of her support network, shedding light on the pillars that keep her motivated in her journey. “My biggest supporters, aside from my donors, are my mom, my dad, my sister and my extended family, but my rocks are my friends from St. Jude. They are what drives me day in and day out to do this work,” said Hollis in her interview with Zhive. What truly sets Hollis apart is her unwavering dedication and determination. She has made it her mission to raise as much money as possible to support pediatric cancer research. In addition to these accomplishments, she has always been an advocate for prioritizing oneself in a way that is healthy and balanced. Her advice to all her friends is to take a second to reflect on what you want before making decisions. “Always remember to prioritize yourself, because it’s not selfish to do something because it makes you feel good, or to not do something because it would make you feel better if you didn’t,” Hollis shares. Through Juggling for Jude, Hollis is proving that together, we can juggle through adversity and offer solace to those in need. Her journey showcases the power of combining our passions with philanthropy, reminding us that there is no limit to what we can achieve when we put our hearts and minds to it. Hollis now sits as an advisory member on the NorCal St. Jude Team to work on engaging the next generation with St Jude’s mission. She is working on how they can bring St. Jude onto social media platforms in an effective way that will expose youth to the life-saving work that is happening at St. Jude. Hollis is also currently preparing for college life. She still plans on continuing to juggle and being involved with the soccer program at her university, but she also wants to delve further into the philanthropy field. “I think as I go to college, I definitely want to expand more in the philanthropic sector and youth and philanthropy in general,” Hollis said, “continuing to do research on the importance of adolescence and purpose and how we can cultivate that in our school curriculums and public school systems.” In the future, Hollis would also like to help develop philanthropic platforms for large corporations. To learn more about Juggling for Jude or to contribute to Hollis's mission, you can visit their website at www.jugglingforjude.com . Together, let's continue to support Hollis Belger as she juggles her way toward a brighter future for all children battling cancer. Want to be featured? We got you covered.
