Kaspar is a rare individual, one of those amazing souls who's eyes and smile penetrate any barrier put before him. If you have been privileged enough to experience a smile of Kaspar's you'll know what I mean. He has a depth that communicates straight to the core of your being. One soul to another. He has a laugh that is an infectious delight and has a wicked sense of humor.
It is because of the gifts that Kaspar gives that we feel motivated to give something to him, to put some physical energy in, to share the delight of being a part of supporting and raising this amazing boy... because it does take a village to raise a child. Especially when our society does not provide essentials that families need to care for their children at home.
This is when we all have to step in and demonstrate a different way - that it is possible to join together and collectively contribute a small amount each that will go towards making a huge difference to Kaspar's and his family's lives.
It is not even an act of charity or generosity - we do not have to feel guilt for not doing more, or fear, shame or any other negative emotions people seem to feel when encountering these situations....all we need to do is give back a little to Kaspar for that generous smile of his, to help his soul and body move in this world and share a little of the joy of caring for Kaspar together.
