五年级小学生建“爱心衣橱”暖人心

A fifth grade girl at Shreve Elementary in Ohio created a Kindness Closet to help students in need. Anderson (Andi) Musser said a friend told her that she wished she had some girls' clothing to wear to school. "I went to my closet (衣橱) and got the clothes and shoes that I wasn’t able to wear," Andi said. "I gave them to her at school the next day. And she was really happy."

After giving her friend clothes, Andi couldn't stop thinking about how great it felt to help someone in need. "She realized what a difference that made for her friend," said Jessica Musser, Andi's mother. "That was so easy to do. She asked, 'Can we do this for more people?' She took the initiative at that point."

So, Andi came to her principal with her idea to create a Kindness Closet, a place students can visit during the school day to "shop" for a new or worn clothes. "She came to me, and I said, 'Yes, let's do it,'" Principal Adam Stein said.

"It's great for Andi to see her dream come true," Principal Stein said. "It's part of our culture here at Shreve and Triway. Proud is a good word, for sure. It's what every principal and parent would want for their kid to doto put others first."
