A 13-year-old from New Jersey has embarked on the cutest mission ever. He sews tiny bow ties for cats and dogs to help them get adopted.
Sir Darius Brown came up with the idea in 2017. He wanted to help draw attention to dogs that were displaced by Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Irma, according to his website. "I didn't have a lot of money to help so I used my creative skills," he wrote on Instagram in January. He has been making bow ties as a hobby since 2010. He started by making bow ties for animals at an ASPCA in New York, according to his mom, Joy Brown.
She estimates that he has helped get dozens of cats and dogs adopted at more than 20 shelters.Read More He's currently raising money on his GoFundMe page to personally deliver bow ties to shelters in all 50 states."He now has this thing where he spins the wheel and he selects a state and animal shelter," his sister, Dazhai Shearz, told CNN affiliate WCBS. In 2018, President Barack Obama gave him a Presidential Commendation.
