Let's do today's Random Act of Kindness in memory of Carter King.

đź’›Carter Kingđź’›

Carter was the type of person who could put a smile on your face the second he entered a room. He was the light and joy everywhere he went, but was also a listening ear or shoulder to cry on. He had a heart of gold with the best of intentions and put others first.
He was given a terminal brain-cancer diagnosis but didn’t let that wipe the smile off of his face. He would even happily cheer on his way to get radiation or anesthesia. He fought with love and bravery til the very last second. All he wanted was for people to learn to find the love and beauty in everything and be courageous.

Warm up someone's soul today with a RAOK, let's make sure Carter knows we found the love and beauty even in the cold weather. âť„

This is the Christmas list no kid should ever have to write. For 16-year-old Devin, it represents his fondest wishes, his cherished dreams. It’s his truth, as a DIPG warrior.

Devin has been battling this aggressive and currently incurable brain cancer for 11 months. Facing rehab and radiation, headaches and heartache.

Wish there was something you could do to help? There is. A full 100% of our donations go to brain cancer research. All of it, every penny, to treatments and trials that could give kids like Devin better outcomes and better results. The heart of our mission is grounded in funding the groundbreaking science that no one else is, the research that will ultimately lead to a cure.

And it starts with you. Read Devin’s full list below, and donate now: https://donate2csn.org
