When nobody showed up for a 6-year-old's birthday party, the community rallied to save the day



FLORIDA (WITI) -- For his 6th birthday party, Glenn Buratti wanted to invite all of his classmates. But when his party day arrived, according to his mother Ashlee, not one kid showed up.

According to WJW, Ashlee said her son was so upset that he wouldn't even smile. She went to Facebook to express her emotions, writing about how badly she felt for her son -- and almost immediately, strangers were responding and began to come to the party with gifts!

"The amazingness of everybody coming together for someone that they didn't even know," said Ashlee.

The 6-year-old also gained attention from the Osceola County Sheriff's Office, they had their helicopter do a flyover for Glenn's party.
