Because of Heller - A Reminder

Because Heller was my Sunshine, and because I want the world to know him...

Did you know that the name Heller means "brilliant like the sun?" Did you know that my little boy, Heller, along with his brother and sister, was the sunshine that inspires Capturing Sunshine?

On December 22, 2007, we lost Heller to an undiagnosed brain tumor. He was nine years old. In his nine, short years, Heller spread more sunshine and kindness then many of us do in a lifetime.

To celebrate his life, each year on December 22nd, Heller’s friends and family honor his memory by spreading random (and deliberate) acts of kindness. We also encourage you and others to go out and spread some kindness of your own.

For those of you who already join us, thank you! For those who would like to learn more, visit Random Acts of Kindness Because of Heller, or join us on Facebook.

December 22, 2010 is less than four months away. Of course, it is my sincere hope that you celebrate kindness today, and every day! But, on that day, we hope you will make a change, do a good deed, and let the world know that a little boy once lived for that special reason.

We hope you will join us!
