Hundreds attend ten-year-old girl's birthday party after none of her classmates RSVP-ed and she complained that 'kids don't want to play with me'

The Daily Mail reports:
Strangers from around Minnesota flocked to a ten-year-old girl's birthday party, after several of her classmates didn't respond to their invitations, in hopes of giving her a celebration she'll never forget.

Mackenzie Moretter, who has a rare genetic disorder called Sotos Syndrome that has delayed her development, which makes it hard for her to socialize, told her parents she wanted a 'big-girl party' for her tenth birthday.

This meant inviting friends, but after her parents sent invitations to Mackenzie's classmates and heard no response, her mother Jenny Moretter took a different approach.

Jenny Moretter went on Facebook and posted in a few local groups asking families with girls around Mackenzie's age to stop by their Shakopee home on Saturday - and the response was overwhelming.


Anyone who showed up did a good deed.
