Little Landon Bedor may be only 4 years old, but he’s not letting his age keep him from working hard in the kitchen, helping out his mom Breanna bake cupcakes and cookies for the less fortunate kids in the Caribbean nation of Haiti.
For the past two weeks, Landon has been keeping himself busy baking treats for Haitian children who’ve been left to fend for themselves after their parents were killed by the devastating earthquake that struck the country’s capital city of Port-au-Prince on January of this year.
Make no mistake about it, Landon is taking this seriously, and even his mom knows it. He whips mixes of General Mills into shape, telling his mom the ingredients he needs and instructing her to crack eggs and watch over the oven.
According to Breanna, Landon just came up to her with a box of cake mix, saying that he wanted to bake cupcakes and sell them in Ottawa for the orphans in Haiti. She asked Landon why, and he was quick to respond that he was moved to do something after seeing a picture of a young Haitian girl with a broken arm and a devastated building behind her. The picture was part of a presentation at the benefit concert for Haiti held on January 22.
The mother and son tandem have so far raised $225, and Landon doesn’t seem to stopping anytime soon.
