14 years old from Harrison, Arkansas Ruby Chitsey Favorite Food: Pizza; she even had some last night! What is their mission/cause? Helping the livelihood of seniors in nursing homes How is she doing it? Her mother works at a nursing home, and when she was 10, Ruby noticed how depressed the seniors living there were. She has been motivated to help the living conditions of the seniors ever since. Fun Fact: She is a natural brunette. She dyes her hair blonde. She loves Netflix, television shows, movies, and binging! She spends a lot of her time watching movies. Inspirational quote: Kindnes s is a hobby. Date of recording: July 18, 2022 When Ruby was ten years old, she noticed that the nursing home residents at her mother’s job had poor living conditions and always seemed disappointed with their lifestyle. Ruby wanted to help them be happier in their nursing homes. Ruby was inspired to make a difference when she realized how easy it is to make a positive change for her loved ones. She is frequently told no, but she does not let that deter her. Ruby always takes “no” as a new opportunity and perseveres past the negativity. Ruby feels the most satisfied when she is working with her friends and for her activism. She becomes elated during her accomplishments and finds heartwarming moments throughout her activism. Ruby Chitsey All Categories Play Video Play Video Ruby Chitsey Social Media Play Video Play Video 01:02 Difficult Days and Daily Practices with Ruby Chitsey Play Video Play Video 01:03 Creating Change with Ruby Chitsey Play Video Play Video 01:14 Future Journey with Ruby Chitsey About Ruby By Winter Pearson When Ruby was ten years old, she noticed that the nursing home residents at her mother’s job had poor living conditions and always seemed disappointed with their lifestyle. Ruby wanted to help them be happier in their nursing homes. Therefore, Ruby became involved and began her activism work, volunteering and advocating with nursing home residents and the elderly to improve their way of life. She has become well-versed in the unfair practices within the nursing homes, such as the Monthly $40. The Monthly $40 is when nursing home residents are provided $40 per month to pay for their snacks, pillows, hygiene products, paper products, and other necessities. Ruby explains that $40 per month is unfair because it is not enough to cover monthly living expenses, and nursing home residents should not have to pay for their basic necessities. Ruby hopes her activism will carry her in her future, and she will be able to change the $40 as she becomes more knowledgeable. Changing the Monthly $40 would include increasing the amount given to the nursing home residents or providing them with necessities, so they do not need to pay for them. Ruby was inspired to make a difference when she realized how easy it is to make a positive change for her loved ones. She has grown over the past few years since she started activism when she was only ten. Since then, her growth has motivated her to keep pursuing her passions, despite some people’s doubts, assuming Ruby was too young to get involved. The first step in creating change for Ruby was to communicate her dreams to her mom. Her mother was hesitant and had misgivings about her daughter’s idea. But Ruby didn’t let that stop her. She continued despite her mother’s and everyone else’s doubt, despite everyone believing she was too inexperienced and her plan would not work. The days that are the most difficult for Ruby are the days she is told no. She is frequently told no, but she does not let that deter her. Ruby always takes “no” as a new opportunity and perseveres past the negativity. “[Being told no is] a struggle, but it gives me more opportunities and gives me the chance to try harder next time.” Ruby pursues her activism work with her friends and peers close to her age group because she believes that teenagers are more innovative than adults give them credit for. Ruby wishes adults would understand how intelligent and creative teenagers are. Because of Ruby’s personal activism and perseverance, she tells her friends never to give up and to keep pursuing their passions to complete their goals. Ruby feels the most satisfied when she is working with her friends and for her activism. She becomes elated during her accomplishments and finds heartwarming moments throughout her activism. Ruby says, “my heart explodes with happiness” when she has successful days in her activism work. When asked about current topics affecting teens today, Ruby believes social media plays an important role. Ruby gets most of her news and information from Twitter and other social media platforms, but she tries to keep it reliable. Ruby believes the current state of social media is very negative, with a high beauty standard. She compares herself to the girls on Instagram, like Kylie Jenner, just like most teen girls do. Ruby wants social media to be more uplifting and for social media to be a place where people can post more positive stories to bring out happiness, “I wish social media just made me happy.” She wants social media to be a safe and supportive space.

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.
