Because she found it difficult to find fun volunteer opportunities as a child/young teen, the 17-year-old compiled a website that offers local ways to involve children under age 16.
Parents can click on links on the site to find matching volunteer opportunities, including helping with animals, sports and outdoor activities.
The Thousand Oaks resident is in 12th grade at Westlake High School. She joined Girl Scouts when she was 6 years old and in first grade.
When she’s not volunteering, she enjoys baking and going to the beach with friends. She is the daughter of Angela and Jason Canton.
