What a wonderful idea! Now I want to start up a Random Acts of Kindness Club too!

Kudos to you for modeling compassion and generosity to your kids.

I think its fabulous that your group does these projects and that the little ones are involved. FYI – and for any of your other readers who want to check it out – there is an organization called Pajama Program (pajamaprogram.org) with chapters all across the US (including right in Ocean/Monmouth county). They strive to collect new pajamas and books which are distributed to local children in need – many of whom are either foster children or living in shelters. Right now, there is no coordinator in my county and I've been thinking of trying to partner up somehow with our church to get involved. Even if just to run a one-time pajama/book drive. Your story inspired me to do something about it. . . Thank you!!

I had the exact same response as Mellisa.. I was like "AWWWWW".
I don't have a son but I have a cousin and I love him a lot =) I try to teach him that kind of stuff, but I'm not sure which drives or charities are around here

I wish we had one like yours!
