Just a few weeks before the neighbour’s birthday, Danya and her father went to share her birthday cake with the neighbour, who lives alone. During the conversation, the neighbour mentioned his birthday, which Danya kept a note of. She announced that she is going to bake him a cake. On the morning of the neighbour’s birthday, she took out all the ingredients before she went to school. Once she was back home, she baked the cake and took it over to the neighbour.

“The smiles on both of them were enough to light up a room! These days it’s hard to find people who genuinely care about others. I’m so proud to say she’s my daughter,” read the caption by Genie.

The blogger also posted a picture of Danya with the cake. Take a look:

The picture, shared on May 25, has more than 1,300 likes and 100 comments. Several users appreciated Danya for her act of kindness while others dropped hearts in the comments. A netizen wrote, “That is so sweet!” while another said, “Absolutely an incredible and adorable young lady”
