Brenden Foster Day

Brenden is an 11 year old diagnosed with leukemia and was given two weeks to live. That was approximately two weeks ago and he's still hanging on. During a news program he was watching on television, the cameras scanned a homeless tent city somewhere in Los Angeles. Brenden was so touched he told his mom that he, Brenden, needed desperately to help them. His story reached the media and people from all over were bringing food to the homeless. Union Rescue Mission has stepped in and will serve 2,500 meals on Friday, Novemer 14, 2008 designating this as "Brenden Foster Day". This has put a big smile on his face and has made a dying boy's last wish come true. What a brave boy and a true hero!
