This Thankful Tuesday, we’re shining a light on an incredible young boy with a heart full of compassion — Callum Mills. 💙

After hearing stories from his mom, a former crisis centre worker, about some of the adversities that children may face, Callum felt moved to take action and decided to help.

Callum began collecting money to buy blankets and stuffed animals (the same things that help him feel safe and cozy in bed). He believed every child deserves something that brings them comfort especially in a time of difficulty.

Thanks to his amazing efforts, Callum has donated 35 sets of blankets and stuffies to children, youth, and families who need them most through the York Region Children’s Fund (YRCF). 🧸🛏️

On behalf of York Region CAS and the YRCF, we want to extend our heartfelt thanks to Callum for his beautiful act of kindness and generosity. 💛

If you’d like to support the wellbeing of children, youth and families, in our community, please consider donating to the York Region Children’s Fund by visiting: https://yorkregionchildrensfund.org/donate/
