We loved this story so much – we made it our Feel Good Story of the day.
The 50-yard challenge was started by Raising Men Lawn Care Service.
They are a non-profit organization and mow free lawns for the elderly, disabled, single parents, and veterans.
Rodney Smith started the charity back in 2016 after seeing an elderly man struggling to mow his lawn, so he helped him out and did it for free.
Now he encourages kids to do the same. 9-year-old from Valrico said he plans to open up his own lawn mowing business, and it will be called Corbin’s Crazy Cuts.
