\"\"<\/a>What do you think \u2026 is four-years-old too young to make a difference for someone living without reliable access to clean water?\u00a0 If you think so, then we’d have to say \u2026 think again!<\/p>\n

Silver, who lives in Utah, is<\/em> making a difference – one \u2018facebadge\u2019 at a time.\u00a0 His Dad, Justin, tells us that Silver “\u2026saw a PSA about kids drinking water from mud puddles. He got really mad \u2026”<\/p>\n

When something makes you mad, it’s often a sign that there is something wrong, something that needs to change.\u00a0 Silver sure understands that principle, because he took his ‘mad’ and turned it into action.\u00a0 Now, Silver and Justin (also known as Papa Silver) have a Facebook page where they sell Silver’s mini works of art to help others.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>What is a ‘face badge’?\u00a0 We didn\u2019t know either\u2026 \u00a0So we checked it out (and you should too). \u00a0Silver draws happy faces, sad faces, scary faces, angry faces; and with the help of his Dad makes them into laminated pins that you can wear as a badge with the emotion of your choice.\u00a0 You can order one yourself!\u00a0 We sure did\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And the next time you feel discouraged that you can\u2019t do anything about the problems we face as a global community, look over at that facebadge you got from Silver and be reminded, \u00a0no one is too young (or too old) to make a difference. \u00a0And no effort is too small to count.<\/p>\n

Here is Silver and Papa Silver\u2019s Facebook page… check it out!
