Debra Mace smiles while holding a baby in her arms, standing next to a wall with a giraffe illustration.

Looking at a child I see so much life, so much hope and so many dreams. A child’s smile illuminates, expresses fun and happiness no matter the condition in which the child lives, emanating a special kindness only a child can give. When I see a child able to smile in spite of the horrid conditions, the squalor in which the child lives, I cannot turn away, I cannot turn my back, I cannot pretend that there is nothing I can do, I cannot ignore the hope that I see in the child.
