A mother was left devastated after discovering that only a handful of kids had signed her son’s yearbook.

When Cassandra Ridder’s 12-year-old son Brody, who struggled to make friends and has been subjected to relentless bullying, only brought home a few signatures, the Colorado mom decided to act.

She shared a screenshot in a private Facebook group with the parents of the school, expressing her sadness.

As word got out in the school community, more and more older students rallied behind Brody. They had even paid him a visit to his homeroom to sign his book. As many older children urged their friends to sign, Brody’s yearbook suddenly became full of countless heartwarming messages.

After the story broke, even more people reached out to Brody, including “Ant-Man” himself, actor Paul Rudd, who video chatted with the boy, and the cast of “Dear Evan Hanson”, who gifted him with tickets to one of their performances.

After the sweet gesture of the students, Cassandra said it made her “feel like there’s still hope. Not just for Brody, but for humanity.
