“Colorful Kindness” Ring

At just five years old, Tijn faced an unimaginable diagnosis: a rare brain cancer with a limited time to live. Instead of succumbing to fear, he chose to spread love and hope. With his family’s support, Tijn launched the “Nail Polish Action,” painting nails to raise funds for children in need. This simple act sparked a nationwide movement in the Netherlands, drawing support from people from all walks of life, including politicians and global citizens. Tijn’s campaign raised millions for charity, funding research and providing care for children battling illnesses like his. Though Tijn’s journey ended too soon, his legacy of kindness and resilience continues to inspire the world.
