Dozens of neighbors came by to support her. By the time she was done, she had around $90 raised for veterans.<\/p>\n
Bella dropped off the jar of cash to the Phoenix VA on Monday.<\/p>\n
\u201cOn behalf of the resource center, we want to thank you for all your hard work and collecting all these great donations that we can use to help our veterans,\u201d said Melissa Meierdierks, Community Resource and Referral Center Coordinator.<\/p>\n
Bella rewarded for her good deed with a T-shirt and was named an \u201chonorary veteran.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI was just amazed that someone in such a small package has such a huge heart,\u201d Meierdierks said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Bella says that she just wants to be a good citizen – she’s on the right path. Thanks, Bella.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
