Dye, Jace said: “Well, I saw people and that they were doing that — giving — and so I thought I could do it to make people happy. I asked my friends to bring clothes for donations. I wanted to make other families happy.” Jace’s birthday was May 31. He said his father goes to Haiti “where people are really poor.” Jace gave a bucket of new clothing items to Bright Futures, Pea Ridge, which gives to children in the Pea Ridge School district.
