This 10-year-old is on a mission to help feed thousands of people across Texas

The ambitious fifth grader wants to provide 100,000 meals to people in need by Thanksgiving Day. It's a part of his"Race to 100K Meals" project, in which volunteers can drop off packaged meals to participating locations in Texas, host their own drop-off events or donate funds or resources to help the campaign reach its goal. Orion, who lives in Fort Worth, says that he was inspired by how challenging this year has been with the Covid-19 pandemic.

"Those are some of the people who were hit the hardest." Kherri Jean, Orion's mother, has been stunned by how quickly the meals they've crowd-funded have reached people in need at soup kitchens and churches. "I remember talking to a driver once we had loaded up everything from one of our packing events," she said."I asked when he thought he'd be able to deliver all of these meals, and he told me, 'I'll be done today.

The Communist News Network will show a 10 year old wearing a mask to subconsciously get the majority to accept wearing a mask.If CNN really cared about the poor then where are the stories that involve billions of dollars of donations that the Clinton’s pocketed? Poor Haitians!
