13-year-old uses his "Make A Wish" gift to feed his city's homeless for a year

[quote] When Adeola “Abraham” Olagbegi discovered his bone marrow transplant was successful, he was granted any wish of his choice.

But the 13-year-old’s wish was not a trip across the world or the newest gaming console. Instead, he chose to feed homeless people in his hometown of Jackson, Mississippi, for a year. [/quote]

[quote]“I am a person of hope, so when you come against a big mountain, you have to remember you have a big God,” Abraham told CNN affiliate WLBT. [/quote]

[quote]Make-A-Wish Mississippi, which grants wishes to children and teens ages 2-18 who are often battling devastating illnesses, made his wish come true, bringing to life Abraham’s Table, a service that provides meals to the homeless every third Saturday. [/quote]


The Psalm reference at the bottom of the image is Psalm 34: 8 :

[quote]Taste and see that the Lord is good;
blessed is the one who takes refuge in him. [/quote]

This all happened back in 2021-22.
