Little Lion Challenge

We founded the Little Lion Challenge after we brought our son, Brennan, home from the hospital in 2013. Brennan was born with a rare birth defect that required 111 days in a neonatal intensive care unit, several surgeries, and a tracheostomy. During that time, it was the little roars — small progresses he made each day and the small acts of kindness — that made all the difference to our family. As a way of saying thanks to all of those who helped us, we established the Little Lion Challenge. We believe that small acts of kindness make a big ROAR.
