Talk about dedication!

90 Year old, Pal Lee is an activist walking for history.

Lee is walking from Fort Worth, Texas, to Washington, D.C., in honor of getting Juneteenth  to become a national holiday. Now, Juneteenth is the date that the last American slaves were freed in Texas so this is MAJOR!

She hopes to meet President Obama and deliver a signed petition with over 100,000 signatures. (This is where you come in- Please help her reach the goal by signing the petition)

Lee plans to make it to Washington, D.C. by December and in a effort to make her deadline she will walk 10 miles per day.

This is living proof that it's never to late to make a difference. Please make sure you sign the petition and spread the word!
