A film by Go Inspire Go.

Six-year-old Nico Castro from California suffers from brain cancer, but that does not affect his spirit of Halloween giving. This worried little Halloween hero with a big heart asked his parents if they could buy costumes and treats for the kids in his cancer ward who were too sick to go trick-or-treating. His parents, who had already undergone a financial hit with Nico's medical care, decided to take up the challenge by starting a costume drive. To their surprise, the community came to their aid, and packages of costumes and treats came in from various parts of the United States. It was an amazing experience to see how the community came together when they were given a healthy dose of inspiration. Kudos to Nico!!!

    I love this video! My daughter has a serious illness and spends a lot of time in the Pediatric Oncology Ward. We have spent many holidays there, and I know how powerful it is to bring joy and a way to celebrate. You are such a superhero, Nico!
