Impact for Youth with Complex Family Journeys
As a former foster child Hannah has a big heart for children surviving in complicated situations. She has volunteered hours and entire months of her life for the service of Children’s Rights and Protection. This includes her living in Kenya Africa and being on the board of The Heart of Little Explorers.
While in Kenya Hannah helped create organization systems and operations for a school and took care of 30 girls who came from complex families. She plans to open a girls home in Kenya to help overcome the gender education gap. One of the large factors to this gap is period poverty the lack of access to menstrual products, sanitation, and safe spaces to manage menstruation which takes countless girls out of school for weeks every month. For girls, this means missing school every month, falling behind, and in many cases, dropping out altogether. This isn’t just about hygiene it’s about dignity, opportunity, and the right to learn.
The Heart of Little Explorers is a mothers run not-for-profit organization that aims to assist local foster families, mothers, and like-minded local charities, with community support, training programs, workshops, and special events.
Beach Moms
In 2017 Hannah Scott founded and lead a moms community known as Beach Moms. This community acted as a lifeline, a learning hub, and a safe haven for moms who live on the beach and neighboring towns of Pinellas County FL. Beach Moms lead weekly and monthly meetsup, personal development workshops, offered discounts to local businesses and more. Beach Moms also extended it’s resources to open Beach Business Network, a networking group that was hub for down to earth mompreneurs.
