NORTH BAY – A young boy is being recognized as a superhero in the eyes of the West Nipissing Food Bank.

Three-year-old Noah Larriviere celebrated his birthday at the end of October and instead of presents, he had his family and friends make donations to the food bank.

His gift table was filled with food, hygiene products and baby supplies.

Noah's mom Sophie says he has a big heart and wants to make a difference in the lives of others.

He also did this for his birthday last year.
