Shortly after completing her run on the hit ABC reality series The Bachelor (and making an appearance on the spin-off series, Bachelor in Paradise), Sarah Herron felt the timing was right to launch a nonprofit. The art director and creative producer at 72andSunny started SheLift, an organization she hopes will change the lives of young girls struggling with self-confidence.

In 2013, Herron became the first contestant to appear on The Bachelor with a physical disability. Herron was born with Amniotic Band Syndrome and as a result has only one arm.
