STANTON, Ky. (WKYT) - A 6-year-old Central Kentucky boy who is losing his vision delivered over 3,000 donated items to the Stanton Nursing and Rehabilitation Center on Saturday.

Tucker Townsend received the donations after his Amazon wish list was featured in a WKYT news story last month. His mother said the donations included pajamas, board games and UK gear.

A Jeep parade preceded Tucker’s delivery of the gifts to the nursing home. His mother said the residents loved the donations.

Tucker’s parents said that while their son might be losing his sight, they want him to see the beauty of this world now by teaching him the value of giving back. Saturday was a testament to their goal.

Tucker also helped raise $400 to sponsor a nursing home resident for Christmas.
