Nicole Richie and Joel Madden have big hearts. They are proving this by making a huge difference in the lives of homeless children in downtown Los Angeles.
The busy parents of Harlow and Sparrow just broke ground on a playground at Beyond Shelter’s Broadway Village 2. They have been raising funds for over a year now for this project.
“It’s so rewarding to see the smile on these kids faces. I spend tons of time here,” says Richie. “When I found out the kids play on a concrete slab or play inside all day, it hit me. Kids need to have an imagination, to be outside and to be free.”
Little Harlow will be spending time playing with the kids when the playground is completed,
“Now that she’s playground age, she can!” Adds Richie, “We started [the Richie-Madden Children's Foundation] so it could be something that our siblings, parents and our kids could all do together. It’s something we talk to her about all the time.”
I am very excited for the next project they have planned. It’s an online registry for moms in need. 4EveryBaby is going to help expecting moms get ready to take care of their babies. Wow, that is an amazing gift.
Thank you Nicole and Joel. I hope this inspires more people to get up and make a difference!
