2-22-22: The boy who is starting a kindness revolution

from SAX IN THE MORNING · host Steve Sax

I would love to hear from you, just send me text and let me know what you think of the podcast.Today I wanted to share another story of someone dedicating themselves to kindness and service to others. What is so remarkable about today’s subject is that it’s a 10-year-old boy. Orion Jean from Dallas, Texas started his journey of kindness after winning a national speech competition where the subject was “kindness.” The grand prize was $500 and instead of spending the money on a Nintendo Swtich or a new bike, Orion started a “race to kindness” challenge where he donated his money, encouraged others to do the same and partnered with a non-profit to help raise money for 100,000 meals to those in need at Thanksgiving. They easily reached that goal, so Orion has set a new goal of donating 500,000 books to kids who live in areas with minimal access to books. His story is beautiful and inspiring and a reminder that if we were all even a little bit more like Orion Jean, the world would be a better place. Source: 10-year-old who helped donate 100,000 meals is on a mission to spread kindnessRace to kindness websiteVisit my website: saxinthemorning.com for merchandise and other links. Follow us on social media: Instagram: @saxinthemorning_podcastYouTube: subscribe and watch shorts here Remember, Sax in the Morning swag is now available on my Instagram site.
