For Avery London’s 10th birthday this year, he asked for items to donate to the Newark Neighbours foodbank. His mom, Krista London, is an influencer on TikTok and reached out to her viewers, who responded generously.

By the time Avery’s birthday came, he had more than 50 Amazon boxes full of donations, $750 in cash and hundreds of gift cards for Newark. The empty shelves at the food bank are now going to be full.
