Six-year-old James Mulley donated his bike to a fundraising garage sale for Sleeping Children Around the World in May, which sold for $35 -- the cost of a bed kit that included a wash basin, a mattress, pillow, sheet, blanket, mosquito net, clothes and school supplies. His gesture was encouraged through a school assignment where he was challenged to conduct a random act of kindness and write about it. James, starts Grade 2 at Maple Grove Public School next week, specifically chose an item that meant a lot to him so he could pay it forward.
