That first week of summer vacation, Liam and his dad found an online treasure hunt game called Brain Chase, where Liam chose three topics to focus on, one of which was ‘service’. The game challenged Liam to find some way, some project to give back to his community. Liam thought about the homeless people he saw every day right outside his building, and he had an idea. The idea was to make … sandwiches! Sandwiches to pass out to the people who needed them most. And thus was Liam’s Lunches of Love born.
In the first week, Liam loaded up a wagon and handed out 20 sandwiches with his dad’s help. He went from sandwiches to complete bag lunches, upgraded the wagon to a hand-cart, and to date has served up more than 2,000 bag lunches to homeless people in his neighborhood. He doesn’t just make the lunches (with some help from dad), but on each and every lunch bag, he writes a handwritten message, often accompanied by an encouraging little bit of artwork.
Liam hopes to someday expand his philanthropy to include animal rescue. A story his dad tells of one incident furthers our faith in Liam’s good heart …
