作为一名曾经无家可归的女子，布列塔尼·斯塔克斯（Brittany Starks）知道苦苦挣扎是什么滋味。现在，她免费为孩子们编辫子，以帮

 

Brittany Starks is a single mother of two working multiple jobs in Tennessee. Her life has not been easy. In the past few years she has been homeless, suffered from severe depression, had to care for a sick child, and was almost killed in a car accident.

It was the accident, she says, that aroused in her a desire to spread kindness in all the ways she could. She became focused on taking every opportunity she had to help those in need. On August 4, Starks offered free hair-braiding(发辫) services to her community. “I thought I was only going to get five to seven kids but I had 35,” Starks said.

Her inbox was quickly flooded with requests for appointments and Starks found herself working every night for two weeks straight into the early hours of the morning. “I wanted to do something for the parents like me whose money is going to be feeding their children and making sure they have a roof over their head,” Starks said. “I wasn’t expecting a big reaction. I thought I’d maybe get five kids or so, but I didn’t realize how huge the need was for this.” And the requests keep rolling in with many parents willing to come from out of state.
