An Ohio mother hoped to make her 11-year-old son’s birthday a little more special. Her son, Soren, who has autism, loves trick-or-treating. The costumes, the excitement of ringing doorbells, and the chance to greet neighbors. Since his birthday falls in the summer, she posted a simple request on Facebook asking if a few neighbors might be willing to hand out candy so he could enjoy an afternoon of Halloween in August. She expected maybe half a dozen families to say yes. Instead, 83 households volunteered. Some decorated their homes, others bought his favorite candy, and children came out to cheer him on as Soren, dressed in a banana costume, happily made his way through the neighborhood. What began as one mother’s small request became a powerful reminder that kindness often grows far beyond what we imagine. Click the link below to read about Soren’s special day.
Kindness in action!
