Meet Ethan and Donald, two humans aged 11 and 91 respectively, who realize intuitively that age shouldn't be a barrier to doing good and being good friends. They help each other, they help others. Ethan visits Donald everyday. "If we need to go to Rural King, we go to Rural King. If we need to go to Walmart, we go to Walmart," Donald said. "Wherever I go, he goes. He goes with me. He keeps me out of trouble," he joked. In his free time, Ethan also runs his own 24- hour food pantry named: "Ethan's Table." He said he does it to bring happiness to people: "See their face when they see all the food and ask how much and then see the joy on their face." His mother, Jessica, is on furlough from her restaurant job, and when they went to a local food pantry, they experienced the long lines for themselves. So they started their own. His mother believes Ethan's own experiences being bullied prompted him to gravitate toward helping older people.
