A 6-year-old Chicago girl chose to celebrate her birthday on March 5 by feeding the homeless, reports ABC News.

From ABC News

Armani Crews, who turned 6 earlier this month, had been begging her parents for “a few months” to feed homeless people in her community, but her parents thought “she was joking,” her mother, Artesha Crews, told ABC News.

…So the Chicago family spent about $300 buying food to deliver to homeless people in the city’s East Garfield Park neighborhood. They purchased chicken, fish, spaghetti, corn, green beans, mashed potatoes, rolls, cake, cookies, fruit and water.

Armani’s birthday party was a success, with the family feeding more than 125 people who gathered. In a statement, the kindergarten student told ABC News, “It was nice to be nice.”

The family fed more than 125 people, with plans to host more food drives, reports KSL.
