An 8-year-old girl with a big heart and loose tooth found a creative way to
help people displaced by the hurricanes.
Briton Nordmeyer sent her tooth to the Red Cross chapter in Sioux Falls,
hoping the tooth fairy would leave money there instead of under her pillow.
The tooth poked a hole through the envelope and fell out, but her letter made
it.
And after word spread of her generosity, a $500 check came in from an
anonymous donor.
Briton had told her mother she wanted to do something for the children who
lost everything.
"It's really nice to help them get new food, homes, schools, toys, lots of
stuff to help them," Briton said.
