This Valentine's Day season, six 2nd-grade classes at Adum K–8 Elementary School in Tampa, Florida, turned kindness into action through a friendly fundraising competition that made a big impact!

Together, these incredible students raised more than $3,300, enough to pack 330 Valentine's Day-themed St. Nick Gift Bags for children receiving care at Tampa General Hospital and Orlando Health Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children.

Each gift bag was filled with comfort items, including a Squishmallow, Pop-It sensory toy, stress ball, coloring book, crayons, and a heartfelt handmade Valentine's Inspiration Card, bringing smiles, hope, and comfort to children facing hospitalization.

We are so proud of every student, teacher, family, and staff member who participated. Through our Kids Inspiring and Helping Kids™ model, these young changemakers learned that even small acts of kindness can make a tremendous difference in someone else's life.

A huge thank you to the Adum Elementary community for showing what compassion, teamwork, and generosity look like. Because of your hard work, 330 local children will be reminded that they are loved, supported, and never alone.

Thank you for helping us share the love—one gift bag, one smile, and one child at a time.
