Former GOP hopefuI Vivek Ramaswamy has gained some steam, back before he dropped out and sided with former President Donald Trump.
Back in the heady early days of the runup to the GOP primary, Vivek was largely considered the winner of the first Republican debate, and the fact that most of the other hopefuls on stage directly atta cked Ramaswamy as opposed to Florida governor Ron DeSantis was quite telling.
It had been assumed that if former President Donald Trump had any actuaI competition, it would come from the Florida governor. Many pundits had assumed the debate would be a knives-out attack on DeSantis. Instead, he faded into the background, avoiding any heavy blows from the likes of Chris Christie and Nikki Haley.
Ramaswamy, the Cincinnati-born entrepreneur, has run largely on the populist platform used by Donald Trump. He espouses America-first policies, more border security, cutting off funding for foreign wa rs, and a climate change stance that immediately has run afoul of the left.
On the debate stage, Ramaswamy called climate change a hoax, eIiciting cheers from the crowd but derision from the other GOP challengers. The young upstart contender recently went on leftist MSNBC and was attacked by Andre Mitchell about his climate change stance.
This kind 8-year-old paid off his friend’s school lunch debt after he was denied food
Cayden Taipalus, eight years old, is here to restore your confidence in humanity, so do not lose hope if you feel that it has been lost.
This young man decided to take matters into his own hands after noticing that one of his buddies was not receiving a warm breakfast at school.
Specifically, Cayden witnessed his friend receiving a sandwich rather than a hot dinner at Challenger Elementary in Howell, Michigan, one day because there weren’t enough money in his lunch account. His heart was broken, and he felt compelled to change things.
After getting home, Cayden immediately told his mother what he had seen and that it had made him feel a little depressed. His mother, Amber Melke-Peters, concurred that action was necessary to stop incidents like that from happening in the future, so together they devised the concept of creating a fundraising website named “Pay It Forward: No Kid Goes Hungry.”
Cayden asked for donations to cover his friends’ lunch debts from neighbors, relatives, and friends. His endeavor, nevertheless, went beyond financial gain because many were inspired by his narrative as it spread.
In an effort to generate money on his own, he even launched a recycling drive. He then addressed the school’s lunch staff and asked that the money be transferred to the accounts of students who were having financial issues.
More than $41,000 has been raised since Cayden launched his effort, allowing him to feed many underprivileged pupils.
Cayden’s ultimate goal is to ensure that no child misses a school day without a hot meal.
“I am so very proud of my son,” his mother declared in an interview with ABC News. His understanding of this notion at the age of eight is quite remarkable, in my opinion. His heart is made of gold.
What started as a stirring feeling in Cayden’s gut turned into an initiative that might guarantee that many kids have hot lunches.
Many people appreciated him and were motivated to support his initiative.
We think this is a fantastic initiative you choose to work on, and we contributed to it. I’m hoping that your idea has received a nomination for the Make a Difference initiative. Someone wrote, “Cayden, you have really made a difference. You have done an amazing job of helping a lot of kids.” You wouldn’t imagine that children would go hungry in a land of plenty, but in actuality, for a lot of youngsters, the food they consume at school can be their only meal of the day. It breaks my heart. As they say, it takes a village to raise a child, and by doing this, we can contribute to the upbringing of a few children while preserving their dignity.
