EDITORIAL: Life lessons from a local 11-year-old
York Dispatch editorial board
Thumbs up to Jameson Shanabrough, who has proven yet again that one doesn’t need a huge bank account — or even a driver’s license — to become a philanthropic force for good in their community.
The Spring Garden Township boy is using his 11th birthday to once again organize a toy drive — with impressive results. More than 4,000 donations have poured in; a veritable avalanche of local goodwill in the form of not only toys, but books, art supplies and other gifts.
Jameson may be a young kid but he’s an old hand at organizing charitable drives. He’s also an example of finding the good even in a difficult situation.
