Teanna Butler has turned her personal challenges into a powerful act of kindness. After spending a week in the hospital this summer, the Grade 6 student at Nassau Christian Academy was inspired to give back to her community by organizing a Back-to-School giveaway.

Recognizing the struggles many children face in preparing for the new school year, Teanna rallied support to provide essential supplies to children in need, ensuring they could start the year with confidence and dignity.

Teanna chose Elizabeth Estates Children’s Home, located close to her community, as the beneficiary. Along with her team from her school’s Girls to Ladies group, of which she is a dedicated member, she collected and donated school supplies, snacks, and toiletries.

The administration at the home expressed deep appreciation for the generosity and thoughtfulness of the young volunteers, noting how impressive it was that they not only prepared themselves for school but also reached out to assist those less fortunate.

Beyond her community work, Teanna is a passionate animal lover who volunteers regularly at the Humane Society, walking dogs on weekends.

Academically, she maintains a stellar 4.0 GPA and dreams of becoming a surgeon—demonstrating compassion and commitment both in and out of the classroom.
