  She has been putting in weeks of work on the shelters, drilling down bases, installing 2 windows and cutting insulation 3."It just doesn't seem right that there are homeless people," Hailey told KING 5 News. "I think everyone should have a place to live."
  一连好几个礼拜她都一直在建造着这些庇护所,打地基,安窗户,裁隔板。"现在还有无家可归的人,这说不过去啊,"海丽告诉KING 5 News,"我认为每一个人都应该有住的地方。"
  Hailey has received a grant 4 for the homes, which will be put in the town's permanent Tent City and be open to the homeless later this year.
  海丽日前已经收到了一笔用于建造这些房子的款项,这些房子将会建在镇上永久的帐篷城,预计今年晚些时候就可以对流浪汉开放。
  9岁小天使!她喂饱了所有流浪汉 为他们造房
  She got the idea after meeting a homeless man named Edward on the street while out shopping for groceries with her mother.They gave the man a sandwich, but Hailey got to thinking about how she could do more and continue providing food to the needy 5, so she set up Hailey's Harvest, a garden with its own Facebook page, to grow vegetables.
  海丽有一天跟妈妈一起出去采购时看到一个名叫爱德华的流浪汉在街上游荡,此后她便有了这个想法。他们给这个流浪汉一个三明治吃,但海丽想的是她要怎样才能为有需要的人做得更多,怎样才能一直给他们吃的,于是她便创立了"海丽的丰收园",并在这个菜园里种植蔬菜。这个菜园还有自己的脸书页面。
  "I said sure, thinking it would last a week. It’s been four years and she still delivers veggies to the homeless every week," her mom, Miranda, told noNPRofit Together Rising.
  海丽的母亲米兰达告诉非营利性机构Together Rising:"我当时很肯定地说,她的这个事业不会超过一个礼拜。可是现在已经四年了,海丽还是每个礼拜都会送蔬菜给无家可归的人。"
  Hailey soon branched out into building, and has been providing updates on her progress with the shelters, along with photos of herself hard at work.
  海丽很快将其事业扩展到房屋领域,并且在脸书上一直更新其庇护所建设过程中的照片,附带自己努力工作的照片。
