Kaleb, an eighth grader at Zion Lutheran, participated in the Pay It Forward legacy project sponsored by the Bottom family, where each student was given $100 and challenged to use it to bring joy to one person or a group of people. Mrs. Sarah Bottom emphasized the importance of blessing individuals allowing students to build a personal connection through their giving. After learning about the project and discussing ideas as a class, Kaleb chose to share his gift with the residents of Grand Living’s Luminations Neighborhood, a place he had visited before with his class.
During his visit, Kaleb brought art supplies, games, and ice cream for everyone, spreading happiness, laughter, and meaningful connection throughout the neighborhood.
Moments like these fill our hearts and remind us how kindness can brighten an entire community.
