빛나는 세계 영웅상: 럭키 도그 동물 구조대

In September 2018, as the Carolinas were facing long-lived and powerful Hurricane Florence, the volunteers of Lucky Dog Animal Rescue rushed to the animal shelters in South Carolina that were in danger of being flooded and transported the animal residents north even before the storm struck. Lucky Dog Animal Rescue's story was covered by a dozen local and national media outlets, including the Washington Post and Fox News, warming the hearts of those affected by the hurricane. Supreme Master Ching Hai was touched by the loving, courageous deeds of Lucky Dog Animal Rescue and honored the organization's founder and executive director Ms. Mirah Horowitz and her team with the Shining World Hero Award along with a contribution of US$ 30,000.
