While cleaning out my daughter’s closet last year,
I decided to donate some gently used clothes for a toddler.
Soon after, a woman reached out, explaining
her little girl had almost nothing
to wear and asked if I could mail the clothes to her.
I was unsure at first but felt moved by her honesty,
so I sent the clothes at my own
expense without expecting anything in return.
Months passed, and I nearly forgot about it,
wondering if I had been scammed.
Still, I told myself that the clothes might be helping someone in need,
and that was enough.
Then, almost a year later,
a package arrived with a heartfelt letter
and photos of the little girl wearing the clothes I sent.
