Sprout Kids Agency along with SelfLess Love making an impact.

Interview with Sprout Kids Agency owner Shaina Miller

About three years ago, Sprout Kids Agency owner, Shaina Miller, received a phone call that would impact her life in more ways than she could possibly imagine. Ashley Brown, Founder of Selfless Love Foundation, was looking for help with photos. Shaina, who is also a photographer, offered to help Ashley with her project. What Shaina didn’t know at that moment was that a simple photoshoot would sprout into a passion for giving back. Here is an inside look at how popular, Miami-based  Sprout Kids Agency began their partnership with the Selfless Love Foundation.

What is Selfless love?

Selfless Love Foundation is dedicated to changing the lives of foster youth. They focus on two areas which include current and former foster youth in which they provide supportive housing and resources for former foster youth, and help find forever families for children in foster care.

How did you first get involved with Selfless love?

“Ashley Brown was a mutual friend with the late, great Andre Rowe, my mentor. Selfless Love was looking for a photographer for their adults program Browns Harbor. Before opening up Sprouts Kids Agency in Miami, and even before getting into the South Florida modeling and acting market, I was a photographer.”

How has Selfless Love Changed your life?

“There was just nothing like meeting everyone face to face. You hear of foundations, and yes they touch you, or at least to me they did… but meeting them? My goodness, it makes my hair raise. These kids just put your life into perspective. Anything and everything I was going through just instantly shrank. Everything is small in comparison. Each time I go there, I feel like I’m floating. It takes me at least two week to come down. These kids, and the moments I’ve experienced, I will never forget. There isn’t a time I have gone that hasn’t been just as life changing as the time before. It is magical. The feeling I get when I receive a phone call that a child gets placed into their forever home is just priceless.”

How is Sprout Kids Agency giving back?

“Along with still providing photographs of the kids, Sprout Kids Agency donates 1% of their profits to the Selfless Love Foundation. We are also creating awareness by promoting them on all of our social media channels and in every email we send out; this way we can reach everyone: casting directors, clients, and aspiring child models and actors. The more people who we can share Selfless Love’s mission with, the better.”

Are there any exciting new plans to collaborate in the future?

“We travel a few times a year throughout the US to photograph the kids looking for a home via Family Match . We will also be hosting drives periodically so that the kids can see firsthand how much everyone at Sprout Kids Agency cares about them.”
