This past August, President Donald Trump invited a young, up-and-coming landscaping professional to mow the White House lawn.
On Aug. 2, the White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders took the time to read a letter to President Trump from Frank Giaccio, a boy from Falls Church, Virginia, the Washington Post reported. Frank, a young landscaping entrepreneur, made this pitch to the president: He wanted to mow the White House lawn.
By Sept. 15, this sixth grader’s wish was answered, the Washington Post reported. Trump joined Frank as he went to the White House to complete the president's landscapers’ to-do list. The president also gave him a tour of the White House.
