WASHINGTON, DC-He has been called "Robin Hood" by locals-a man who steals kites and gives them to people who actually need them. He has over 400 trees planted in the city, and each tree averages 2 kites a week. It's estimated he's caught 65 million kites and given them to people who actually need them this year alone.
"I got started doing this when I realized there were so many people who actually needed kites and didn't have one. I knew there had to be something I could do to make a difference."
If you're someone who actually needs a kite, you can contact him through Facebook to get on the wait list.
