Laurel McAdoo, founder of Myles of Smyles, and , founder of Maddie's Mark, recently discovered the same thing. The duo, who the paper says both lost children to cancer in 2012, met NaSeaph at an event, learned of his amazing birthday wish, and quickly organized an early birthday party where, in accordance with NaSeaph's request, guests brought canned foods to donate to the needy.
McAdoo, whose Myles of Smyles provides support for families living in the Northeast who face serious health challenges, told the paper:
NaSeaph said he wanted to collect food for his birthday because he and his mother have received help from others. They had lived in a hotel where his hospital bed and game system were stolen, and the family got assistance to find the apartment where they now live.
Asked how he felt to see people bring the canned food he asked for, NaSeaph said, "I am happy."

Mark Quandt, executive director of the regional food bank, told the paper: "Obviously he has been instilled with a real love and a real caring for others."
