Boy With Cancer Gets Dream Bedroom From Teen Volunteers

Forget everything you thought you knew about teenagers. Turns out, they love to give back.

I’ll admit, I got a little emotional over this one. For real:

Teen volunteers spent their weekend helping with an amazing room makeover for an 8-yr-old boy named Will who is currently undergoing chemotherapy. All of their hard work paid off when they saw Will’s heartwarming reaction to his new bedroom! The room makeover was organized by Karen Morgenbesser, who founded Art from the Heart, a nonprofit that grants room makeovers to children ages 4 to 18 currently undergoing chemotherapy treatment throughout CT and NY.

Thanks for letting us share your story, Will—and I love your new bedroom. Rock on, dude!
