Victoria Martine
Indiana
Victoria Martine, 16, of Zionsville, Ind., a junior at Zionsville Community High School, has raised $2,100 in the past five years to support an orphanage in Guatemala with the proceeds of a book she wrote called "The Hundred Dollar Sock." Victoria, who promotes and sells her book through book signing events, was given permission to volunteer for one week at the orphanage in 2013, despite being too young according to its policy, because of her fundraising efforts.
