This sweet man is helping kids find happiness… literally.
Jason Haney, a construction foreman from South Bend, Indiana, has a slightly unusual habit at work.

Every day, he leaves an 8-foot-tall plywood cutout of Where’s Waldo around his construction site for the kids in the Memorial Children’s Hospital next door to find.

The 41-year-old dad thought of the idea after hearing that the kids at the hospital and their families liked a snowman put up by Haney’s team in the construction yard last winter.
So with the help of his daughter Taylor, the artistic dad created a life-sized Waldo and “hid” him all over the construction site.

Then he would wait for the kids to look out their windows and scour the construction site in search for the red-and-white-striped deviant.

He teams up with the hospital staff so that once the kids have found Waldo, Haney is immediately given a go signal to move the cutout to another location.

To make things even more interesting, Haney decided to create a Facebook group where the kids can post pictures of Waldo’s various hiding spots.
