CNN HEROES SALUTES | A Reddit user granted ‘One Simple Wish’ and his story triggered a tidal wave of generosity
(CNN) – Last month, a member of the popular website Reddit responded to this

your heart but have not told anyone?”
His answer inspired an online community to step up and donate sneakers, books,
toys, and electronics to hundreds of children impacted by the foster care

and young adults who aged out of the system.
