For most kids, Halloween is all about costumes and bringing back a huge stash of candy. But for one Missouri kid, instead of hauling just candy, he would also be trick-or-treating for canned goods for the most amazing reason.
Eleven-year-old Nickolas Blair, from Kansas City, had a most generous idea one Halloween; he decided to collect foods for donation to a non-profit organization that feeds the homeless. “I wanted to make those people feel better and feel more like, ‘Hey, we’re special,’” he told KMBC-TV.
