Nick Katsoris stumbled upon an idea for a children's book about a little lamb named Loukoumi that has expanded beyond its pages in spectacular ways. The Loukoumi movement caught the eye of Broadway hit Come From Away. We caught up with Katsoris to talk about the amazing work his foundation is doing and how he's teaming up with Come From Away to spread the message of good deeds.

The Loukoumi Make A Difference Foundation and the award-winning musical COME FROM AWAY have partnered to share their joint message of kindness in the new book Inspiring Stories That Make A Difference (Hybrid Global Publishing). The book features the stories of over 75 children who are having fun paying it forward for causes that mean something to them.

This Fall, The Loukoumi Make A Difference Foundation and the Tony Award winning Broadway musical Come From Away, will be publishing a book titled'Inspiring Stories That Make A Difference'.

This week, The Loukoumi Make A Difference Foundation honored Oscar and Tony Award winner Kevin Kline, who was also just nominated for a Tony Award yesterday for Present Laughter. Scroll down for photos from the event!
