Tanner's birthday gift to Brookstone

On Friday, August 22nd, Tanner Hart arrived at Brookstone with his mom (Fran), dad (John) and younger brother (Bennett). When Tanner arrived, he let us know that he was bringing gifts he collected at his birthday party. Tanner recently turned 10 years old. 


Instead of requesting gifts for himself, he asked his birthday party guests to bring something for Brookstone. 


He and his family carried in construction paper, folders, journals, notepads, markers, boxes of tissue and a backpack to be used as needed. 

When asked what they thought about their son doing this, Tanner's parents said, "We are very happy that Tanner chose to do something for other children. Both Tanner and his friends are developing giving hearts and a desire to follow God's teaching." 

Thank you, Tanner Hart, for sharing your heart (and your birthday) with Brookstone!
