Now, several months after Sunshine’s initial mission, people across the country are stepping in for her cause. Jackie couldn’t be more proud of her thoughtful granddaughter…
When Sunshine revealed the purpose of the money, Jackie had to do her best to hide the tears rolling down her face. In an emotional interview with TODAY Parenting, Jacie shared what her grandfather wanted to spend her hard-earned money on.
“She said she was taking her to school for milk. I explained that I had already paid for her milk for the month, and then she looked at me and said, ‘My friend’s mom doesn’t have milk money, and so do I.’ “”
At that moment, Jackie realized how special her grandson was – after months of saving, the Sunshine did not want a new toy, she just wanted to feed her classmates.
