Nicole Swadron with her sons, five-year-old Luke and 2 1/2-year-old Dean. Luke donated the 45 presents he received for his fifth birthday to charity. 'I gave them to people who don't have toys,' he said. 'They don't get to go to parties. It's much funner to play with toys I have already.'

When Nicole Swadron planned her son Luke's fifth birthday party, she suggested donating the presents to Toronto's Hospital for Sick Children. Luke had met some children at the hospital, so he was on board."
