A Childhood Interrupted

Sammy was born in a remote village in Laos, a country ravaged by war. At the tender age of seven, his family was forced to flee their home, embarking on a perilous journey to Thailand in search of refuge. For years, they lived in refugee camps, enduring unimaginable hardships and uncertainty.

In 1980, Sammy's family was granted asylum in the United States. They settled in Saint Paul, Minnesota, where they faced new challenges in a foreign land. Sammy struggled to adjust to a different culture and language, and he often felt isolated and alone.

A Spark of Hope

Despite the challenges he faced, Sammy's spirit remained unbroken. As a young man, he became involved in community service, volunteering at a local senior center. It was there that he discovered his passion for helping others.

In 2003, Sammy founded the nonprofit organization Captain Kindness & Friends. The organization's mission is to spread kindness and compassion throughout the community, particularly among those who are marginalized and vulnerable.

Acts of Uncommon Kindness

Over the years, Captain Kindness has become synonymous with acts of extraordinary generosity and kindness. Sammy has organized countless events, including food drives, coat drives, and back-to-school giveaways. He has also provided financial assistance to families in need and visited countless seniors and sick children.

One of Sammy's most notable initiatives is the "Adopt a Grandparent" program, which pairs lonely seniors with children who visit them regularly. This program has not only brought joy to the lives of the elderly but has also fostered intergenerational connections and broken down barriers.

A Community United

Sammy's unwavering commitment to kindness has inspired countless individuals to join his mission. Captain Kindness & Friends now boasts over 2,000 volunteers who are dedicated to making a difference in their community.

Through his organization and his own personal example, Sammy has created a ripple effect of kindness that has spread throughout Saint Paul and beyond. He has fostered a sense of unity and belonging, proving that even in the darkest of times, the human spirit can prevail.

A Legacy of Love

Sammy Bird Moua, Captain Kindness, is a true hero. His journey from refugee to beacon of hope is a testament to the power of resilience and the transformative impact of kindness. Through his selfless acts and unwavering determination, he has made the world a better place, one person at a time.

As Sammy himself has said, "Kindness is contagious. Once you start ng it, it becomes a part of you. And when you see the difference it makes, it makes you want to do more." May his legacy of love and compassion continue to inspire generations to come.
