Lex Fitzgerald threw a birthday party for her daughter, Willa, at a burger restaurant in Keller, Texas. However, when they arrived, nobody had shown up. Lex began to worry that she had made a mistake with the invitations, but then realized that many people had said they would attend. She decided to post a message on a neighborhood Facebook page, inviting anyone with young children to join them. The post quickly went viral and within an hour, dozens of people had arrived to celebrate Willa’s birthday. The restaurant provided free food and drinks for the guests.
… Fitzgerald said she was grateful for the kindness of strangers who came together to make her daughter’s day special and hopes that the story will inspire others to spread kindness in their communities.
