To see the smile on my sons’ face when he received his bike I cannot even begin to put those emotions into words. I was in tears and my son was beaming with a smile I had not seen in a long time. It brought a sense of joy, love and impact that will last a lifetime. So as a mother who was deeply impacted by what Mitch had done and
