The Beginning: The Haley Sue Foundation

Out of everything there can still be a positive no matter how negative that thing may be. In 2020 Haley Sue Pearson was a vibrant and alive teacher, singer, friend, coach, wife, daughter, niece, cousin, and was working towards changing the world. She wasn't necessarily changing the world by some grandiose gesture but instead she was doing it in an intelligent and concise manner, one person at a time.

Her patient way and adaptable mindset made her everyone's best friend. Some people would say the very idea of her being everyone's best friend was difficult, but Haley honestly was everyone's best friend. She listened and more important she heard. She wanted to consistently make a difference with every person she came in contact with. She was not in any way shallow or fake but instead was highly adaptable and quickly understood the needs of others. 

As a teacher Haley found the lowest common denominator quickly and showed others what was necessary to succeed. As a friend Haley paid attention to who you were and made you the center of her universe. In each thing Haley did she pushed for excellence and she pressed to be the best that she could be. 

It is with that thought of excellence and achievement and willingness to sacrifice to change the world even a little that the Haley Sue Foundation was built upon. Each year the Haley Sue foundation will make a difference in a young person's life by giving a scholarship to help in college. The foundation will also be involved in changing the world every day. Whether it is small gesture or a massive movement the foundation will inspire the passions of both young and old and keep shining the light of Haley Sue. If you believe that everyone who wants to make a difference deserves a chance, then please visit thehaleysuefoundation.org and consider helping to change the world one person at a time.
