About three months ago during a trip to new york mia saw some Homeless People sleeping on the sidewalk. It was an experience that upset her but also inspired her. Instead of celebrating her birthday on december 19th she asked her mother if she could give up all her presents and use the money to organize a dinner for families who often dont know where they will find their next meal. Mia used social media in the best way to make a selfless request that family and friends send money to feed the less fortunate instead of sending her gifts. Dozens of people enjoyed a warm meal in marlton and in return, mia, her family and everyone watching this right now received a seasonal gift you cant buy in stores. A lot of people came in here eating and moms, dads, babies other people they got really happy. We really appreciate everybody that cared to help mia with her birthday blessing.

The church which hosted the dinner sang happy birthday to mia and gave her this birthday cake and on it a scripture, a little child shall lead them.
