Two MSU Students Gather More Than 300 Halloween Cards For Kids Battling Cancer - a podcast by MWC

Two MSU students teamed up together and gathered over 300 Halloween cards for kids battling life-threatening illnesses at the children's center inside Sparrow Hospital in Lansing.



Halloween is filled with trick-or-treating, haunted houses, horror movies, and all the candy you could ever dream of. For kids, Halloween is the one time where eating handfuls of candy is totally acceptable. Some kids aren't as lucky to enjoy the festivities due to life-threatening illnesses. That's where Tyler Logan and Yamani Vinson came together to show kids fighting for their life at Sparrow Hospital in Lansing that the community is thinking of them too during Halloween.It all started with a Facebook post that Yamani saw on Facebook from a child in Wisconsin that is battling cancer. The child was asking for Halloween cards since he couldn't leave the hospital and celebrate the Halloween spirit with his friends.



Yamani and Tyler decided to do their part to help kids in Lansing by asking the community to come together and make cards for children battling life-threatening illnesses inside Sparrow Hospital. The idea turned into more than 300 cards for kids and dozens of bags of candy for the kids to enjoy.Tyler stopped by the i929 studio to talk about the spontaneous idea that went viral in Lansing.
