What I Learned
Her Success
I learned many things while researching about Hannah Taylor
- Age is only a number, you can accomplish many things early in life
- All actions result in change no matter how small
- If you want to see a change where you live, become that change in society
Struggles
Hannah Taylor and The Ladybug Foundation have had major success, due to their efforts
- Millions of homeless people have access to food and shelter
- She has inspired many others to start making changes in their communities
- Hannah Taylor teachers others, how to become the change they want to see in their communities
Though, Hannah didn't face many problems there was one that was critical to delaying her impact
- The fact that she was five when she first wanted to help the homeless was a huge problem because no one took her seriously
- Because of her age, her ideas were normally laughed off till she was 8, when her grade 1 teacher took her seriously for the first time

Why is She a Global Citizen
Who is She?
A Global Citizen is someone who acts for the greater good of everybody, not only their own community. Their actions themselves are on a global level. I believe Hannah Taylor fits this role perfectly. Hannah Taylor has had a global impact as well as playing a major role in Canada too. She has taught thousands of other children how to have an impact in their own communities. Hannah Taylor supports the weak, gave herself and others a voice, and she has broken barriers and made a difference. She acts for the homeless. Her concern regarding homelessness is unmatched. This is why Hannah Taylor is a Global Citizen.
