Classmates Incredible Surprise Gift For A Bullied Teen
When Sean Hawkins discovered his beloved Nintendo was stolen he wrote a plea for help on his school’s white board. Some of his classmates saw it and their act of kindness for this bullied teen you have to see to believe. High school can be an incredibly tough time. Between trying to figure out who you are and bullies who constantly remind you what you are not, it can be tough just to make it through the day. Sean hasn’t had the easiest time in school, he has bullies of his own. But his Grandma gave him a portable gaming system, a Nintendo 3DS and Sean used it to help himself escape the hardships of school.

Sadly, who ever took the Nintendo did not return it. But Shawna Cantiliano and her friend Piper saw the note and they decided to do something about it.

It broke her heart thinking that without it he may have to hear the mean things others may say. See Shawna knows the feeling. She and her siblings have had a rough go of High School and she knows how much it helps to know you are not alone. “I saw myself and my family in him, and I felt like if someone ever did that for me, it might give me hope.” So she and Piper took up a donation. And when they finally got enough money they went out and bought a new Nintendo for Sean. With permission from their teachers they interrupted Sean’s class with the surprise.

It is so sweet to see him get completely overwhelmed by joy.
