There is a child in New Jersey who, at the age of 12, founded a real company, where he realizes bow ties of all colors, to donate to many cats and needy dogs, guests of catteries and shelters.

He is Darius Brown, who since he was two years old has always fought with a delay in speech and understanding. As if that were not enough, at the age of eight he was also diagnosed with a motor problem. Difficulties that perhaps made him particularly attentive to the problems of abandonment.

However it all began when his sister put him on a project to help her make bow ties. Mom and sister quickly realized that the boy was gifted with one great dexterity and soon his creativity and skill led him to realize bow tie more and more particular and accurate.

After having received positive acclaim from family members, the boy decided to open a company specializing in the creation of bow ties for people and four-legged friends, the "Beaux and Paws". In 2017, when the United States was devastated by powerful hurricanes, Darius learned of the terrible fate that many cats and dogs, who had lost their families, were facing: if they were not adopted soon, they would be suppressed.

The boy, very fond of animals, was somewhat shocked and decided to donate his bow tie to the catteries and kennels. Did you understand why? putting a nice custom bow tie in each cat and dog guest of the shelter, people would have been more inclined to adopt them and therefore to give them a new existence. For example, the cats hosted in the shelters, on the days dedicated to the visits of the people who intended to adopt them, wore a nice bow tie and they were even more adorable. With the result that even the most reluctant people to adopt would literally "melt" and bring a nice cat home.

Initiative that led to huge results and Darius himself said he felt quite enthusiastic when cats and dogs were adopted the moment they put on the bow ties. The managers of the shelters noticed a increase in adoptions, in fact, the idea of Darius works! For his great commitment and dedication, in 2018, the American president Barack Obama even sent him a letter in which he thanked him for all his efforts and all his dedication to the weakest.

Darius has been the spokesperson for a concrete help towards animals and has been a guest on several broadcasts and awarded various honors. His sister, who always supports his work, has also decided to start one fundraising campaign to help all the guests of the shelters and continue to give them funny bow ties, which perhaps make them a little less sad.

We hope that the commitment of Darius and his sister never runs out and that the many animals hosted in the shelters find a family soon and a place that can finally define home!
