Austin asked his dad why a mother panda left her cubs alone.</div><div><br></div><div>"And I said, well, I guess it's going to be homeless for a while, and he said are people homeless and I said yeah, some of them. And he asked me to take him to see a homeless person," he recalls.</div><div><br></div><div>They did just that. </div><div><br></div><div>Terance and Austin bought food for the homeless in Prichard. That experience launched a passion project for the 4-year-old, who now helps the hungry wherever he goes, in Birmingham and even Washington D.C.</div><div><br></div><div>"I just want Austin’s experience to be contagious to everyone else. Even though people are different, they still deserve to be loved," said Terance.</div></div><div><br></div><div>—————</div><div><br></div><div>Video</div><div><a href="http://www.nbc4i.com/news/u-s-world/4-year-old-uses-allowance-to-feed-the-homeless/1115010100">http://www.nbc4i.com/news/u-s-world/4-year-old-uses-allowance-to-feed-the-homeless/1115010100</a></div><div><br></div><div>———————————————<br><br><div><div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Seeya 'round town, Moscow, because . . .</span></div><div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">"Moscow Cares" (the most fun you can have with your pants on)</span></div><div><a href="http://www.moscowcares.com/" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><font color="#000000">http://www.MoscowCares.com</font></a></div><div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"> </span></div><div><div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Tom Hansen</span></div><div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Moscow, Idaho</span></div></div><div><br></div></div></div></div></body></html>
