Young Girl Makes Big Donation

Eleven-year-old Olivia Knowles of West Palm Beach, Florida, raised more than $4,000 this year for a local children’s shelter, her biggest donation yet since she started her charitable efforts years ago. 

Olivia has been setting up a hot chocolate stand in her area since she was six years old. Each year, she donates her earnings to Grandma’s Place, a local shelter for abused children that also provides short-term care for children with disabilities and the people who support them, CBS 12 reported. 

This year, the donation was the biggest one yet. Olivia’s Annual Hot Cocoa Stand social-media page announced on February 6 that she had raised $4,331.
