Maysa Willis, the granddaughter of Ken and Suzanne Willis, worked hard to raise funds and purchase "FurReal" pet tigers for Village House clients.
Willis, a student at Lincoln Schools, sold jewelry during her seventh-grade year at the school in order to purchase two "FurReal"tigers for the Adult Day Program. She was inspired to do so after she gave her grandmother, Suzanne, one of the pets last Christmas while Suzanne was a client of the Village House. Maysa watched and took special notice of her grandmother's loving engagement with the A.I. (artificial intelligence) FurReal Pet and decided that other clients should have this same experience. She began her fundraising.
Last week, Maysa's fundraising project paid off as she proudly dropped off two new FurReal Tiger Pets to the Village House.
