August 16, 2021 by Staff

(CBN News) One 10-year-old boy from Fort Worth, Texas is using his love of reading books to help spread kindness around the world.

After Orion Jean won a student kindness contest in July 2020, he initiated a series of events that focus on serving those in need through acts of kindness.

“Kindness is a virtue we can all possess,” he told CBS News. “If we are willing to. So why not start today. Because right now, it’s what we need more than ever.”

His current drive is called “Race to 500,000 Books” where he is collecting books for children who don’t have their own. He started on May 1 and hopes to meet his goal by August 31.
