Juan Pablo Galavis
, the star of ABC’s
“The Bachelor,”
was looking for true love on the popular
reality show and was often seen taking off his shirt for the
camera and for the ladies. One thing Juan Pablo didn’t take
off, however, was a bright orange rubber
Step By Step
Foundation
bracelet that he hoped would also capture the
audience’s attention. Over the past three years the handsome
bachelor, who is a single father, has played an active role
in helping his friend, charity founder
Liliane Stransky
(who
is also the owner of
Stransky’s Mission Farm
), spread the
word and gain attention for children in need around the world.
Juan Pablo and Liliane are hoping the equestrian world will
follow suit and also wear the bracelets. Order a bracelet at
or find Liliane and fellow
supporters at the horse shows!
