Hannah was born with congenital hip disarticulation and does not have her left leg, but has not let that slow her down one bit. An inspiring 10 year old from Raleigh, N.C., Hannah was recently featured in the Raleigh News & Observer.

I applaud her work ethic and motivation. Her greatest strength emanates from her physical developmental disabilities.
