One of the members of the group is also working with a Canadian charity for a good cause.
Tsehay, or the Yellow Wiggle, has partnered with the Children’s Aid Foundation of Canada to create Something in Common an e-book available for download. The book helps kids learn about different family structures that exist, as well as the importance of representation and was created with insights from former youth in care.
For every download, AMJ Campbell will match each digital download of Something
in Common with a $1 donation, up to a total of $30,000.
Tsehay was introduced last year as the new Yellow Wiggle. She was adopted in Ethiopia at seven months old and raised in Australia. She believes in the power of representation.
“I can completely relate to the issues and questions children from blended families face,” says Tsehay Hawkins, the Yellow Wiggle. “I feel so fortunate to be adopted and raised by my
wonderful parents. Even though I was totally happy and comfortable with how my family was formed, sometimes I did feel different than others. This book means so much to me because it spreads awareness, educates people, and helps children from a young age understand different family structures and embrace it.”
