Jaxton Saves His Money.
Before he turned five, Jaxton saved the money he received on his birthday and Christmas. At first, the kid’s parents thought Jaxton was saving the money to buy an expensive toy. But it became apparent to them that the money was for a more significant cause when the kid asked them to join him at an animal shelter.
It was Jaxton’s mom, Elyse, who joined the kid at the Charleston Animal Society. The toddler used the savings he had to sponsor the adoption fees of two pit bulls. This is why whoever wanted to adopt the dog will no longer pay the cost of adoption.

Jaxton’s gesture was simple, yet it triggered positive effects on the people who saw a post about what he did. Since the kid’s activities touched the animal shelter volunteers, they shared what Jaxton did on Facebook.
The volunteers’ goal is to show that there are still kids who genuinely care about shelter dogs. More than this, the volunteers likewise wanted to point out that pit bulls are not dangerous animals.

After sharing the post online, the same generated enough traction and discussion among netizens. After a few days, the two dogs that Jaxton sponsored got adopted by two loving families. In an interview, Elyse mentioned how proud she is of what Jaxton did.
For Elyse, although Jaxton’s acts might be simple, they changed how people view shelter dogs. Elyse added that she is assured about the kid’s beautiful future because Jaxton has a kind heart.
