Karlie's Cause: Helping Abused Animals

Karlie, a 9-year-old Ohio girl, is pretty special. At the tender age of 6-years-old she set up her own animal charity. Now every year she passes on birthday parties and presents so that she can raise money and collect pet food for animals in need.

Karlie said she wants others to help those less fortunate, especially, furry friends.

"The animals here, if they don't have food and they don't have the water, they're probably going to die," Karlie said. "Pets are not our whole life, but they make our life whole."
