Meet Moni!
Simone ‘Moni’ Martin is a 15-year-old who has an amazing sense of humor and quick wit. She has a very creative way of looking at things and brings a beautiful perspective to otherwise mundane experiences.
She is incredibly strong and has a unique life story that encourages others to be brave when faced with their own challenges. She enjoys reading Mad magazine, watching videos or playing games on her phone, coloring or creating art and spending time with her mom. She is always up for a new adventure and loves exploring new places.
In her words, she’s an introverted extrovert. She loves being around people but also loves being home, relaxing and spending quiet time alone. Her favorite shows are The Flash, The Amazing World of Gumball and Wizards of Waverly Place. Her favorite colors are purple and pink.
We can’t wait to take Moni and mom family to Disney World with the help of Jersey Mikes, Kroger, Planet Fitness, Masco, Kinetyc, Emagine Theatres, Canterbury Village, Village of Rochester, Glenlore Trails and our charitable partner Angels of Hope!
Each child that Jay’s Juniors has had the privilege to help has a unique and inspiring story. Listen to an exclusive audio clip from the Jay Towers in the Morning show, where Jay talks about the child’s story and the impact Jay’s Juniors has had on their life. We invite you to get to know these incredible kids and celebrate their strength and joy with us.
