Nicholas Perrin, 7, donated the money he saved for the trip to his family's church, which is taking donations for the Ukrainian people.
BENSALEM, PA — A boy from Bucks County made a selfless donation to his Bensalem church in an effort to help the people of Ukraine.
Nicholas Perrin, 7, donated the money he had been saving for two years for a trip to Disney World to Christian Life Church, which took the generous donation to be used for relief efforts in Ukraine as the country faces attacks from Russia.
Perrin was attending the church, located at 3100 Galloway Rd., with his family when he learned about the church's outreach efforts for the country. Moved by a desire to help those he would never meet, Perrin donated his $250 in savings to the church. He and his family also donated supplies.
