The 9-Year-Old Eco-Warrior with a Winning Streak!

Aubrey Allen is not your average 9-year-old. Sure, she loves lemonade stands and playing with friends, but her true passion lies in the heart of her garden. With a green thumb inherited from her great-grandfather, Aubrey spends countless hours nurturing a vibrant world of plants. This little eco-warrior isn't just growing flowers for fun. Aubrey sees gardening as a way to save the environment, one seed at a time. Whether it's her award-winning aloe, towering corn stalks, or cheerful impatiens, every plant plays a role in her mission.

But, Aubrey's talents extend beyond the garden. This young entrepreneur is also the mastermind behind a thriving lemonade stand, whipping up delicious treats with real lemons and other goodies.

Two years ago, Aubrey's life took another exciting turn when she met Ayenza Matthews, Heal The Planet’s Wellness Director. Ayenza, a champion athlete herself, has taken Aubrey under her wing, teaching her the ropes of track and field.  The high jump is Aubrey's favorite event, but she's also mastering shot put, turbo javelin, and sprints. With Ayenza's guidance, Aubrey is training to be a well-rounded athlete. 

While Aubrey dreams of Olympic glory on the track, she also has a future in medicine in her sights, aiming to become a cardiologist. This well-rounded young lady is clearly on a mission to make a difference, both on the field and off. Animals and nature hold a special place in Aubrey's heart, and she plans to use her garden to give back to the community. Aubrey shows us that anyone, no matter their age, can be a true eco-warrior and Heal The Planet.
