Please join Heller's Facebook Group, Random Acts of Kindness Because of Heller.

WELCOME!

On the day of Heller’s life celebration, his grandmother (Mapa) said these words:

“Many people have mentioned the fact that this tragedy (the loss of our sunshine) is heightened by the fact that it happened around Christmas, and they wonder how we will ever get through another Christmas.

Christmas is Christ’s day and we will continue to celebrate Jesus on that day! But December 22nd will be a day reserved for celebrating the life of Heller, and we will celebrate on that day (and perhaps a few days prior to) the way he would want us to. On that day, we will go out and make a change, do a good deed, and let the world know that a little boy once lived for that special reason.”

So, on December 22nd, Heller’s friends and family will honor his memory by spreading random (and deliberate) acts of kindness to others. We encourage you to go out and spread some kindness of your own.

Then, if you would like to, please leave a comment or send an email to BecauseofHeller@aol.com and share what you did, what you witnessed, or what others did for you so we may share Heller's impact with others. So we can remember that we are still celebrating his life!

Have You Received a Kindness Inspired by Heller?

Help this Site Grow Because of Heller

This year, we are making the choice to look forward to December 22nd! We cannot wait to share Heller's kindness with others. We know there will be difficult times as the date grows nearer, so we look forward to stopping by this site during those times to see what kindnesses are growing and to share stories of our kindnesses as well.

Please feel free to send an email to BecauseofHeller@aol.com with any suggestions, comments, thoughts, or ideas about how we can make December 22nd even more special "Because of Heller."

Words to Live By

Have you thought about how you will spread kindness Because of Heller this year?  The opportunities are endless.   I pulled together some words to live by in the hope that it will help spark your minds, your hearts, and your creativity.  As I do each year, I am asking each of you to share some thoughts about how you will celebrate December 22nd.  What kindnesses will YOU deliver? 
 
Among other kindnesses, Heller’s family and friends will once again host a peanut butter and jelly drive and collect donations for ECHO (Heller’s favorite charity).  Let us know if you have a contribution you would like to have delivered.
Thank you all so much for continuing to remember Heller with random and deliberate acts of kindness.  I cannot express in a blog post how much it means to his family and friends.

In His love,
Hayley (Heller's Mom)
