Creator with a Cause - Shine A Lite ATL

Pit Bulls - Myths vs Truth

This episode of the Creator Lifestyle is a little different. We got the opportunity to interview a Creator with a Cause, Colleen Cruz, Founder of Shine A Light ATL. Colleen started this initiative in January of 2015 to educate & change the perceptions regarding Pit Bull type dogs.  What we love most is how she was creative in her cause through taking images of pitfalls & their families’ and telling their stories to demonstrate that these dogs are just like any other family pet & just like all dogs, should be seen as individuals.

Colleen was inspired to name her initiative by the quote from Dr Martin Luther King Jr.  “ Stereotypes are like shadows, shine a light on them and they disappear”

Colleen lives in Atlanta with her partner of 22 years Dan. They are proud owners of two pit bulls, Charlie Brown & Clementine.
