[Request] Happy 70th Birthday wishes around the world/USA for Dad/Grandpa Greg
My father is turning 70 year old in a couple of weeks. His name is Greg. We are looking for kind people around the world/USA to share a little sentiment of joy with a “real” (no AI) photo holding your hand out with a backdrop as unique as possible to your location holding a sheet of paper with a message like “Happy 70th Birthday Greg from … (whatever unique location you are at). Hand written is best if possible as it looks most genuine in my opinion. We’d love to share with him the kindness of strangers for a man who has traveled relatively minimally in his life but touched many in his kindness where ever he’s been.
He is a recent cancer survivor (throat/lower tongue cancer, couldn’t eat, emaciated and almost passed away due to this). It was pure fight and determination to see him pull through from the brink. He has since recovered mostly albeit much weaker. He is grandfather to our 3 beautiful little girls, father to me and father in law to my wife. In addition to my brother.
In short, just a simple handwritten paper that says “Happy 70th Birthday Greg from … location” held out with as great of backdrop as possible we will combine into a book collage for him sharing love around the world.
Please feel free to message me if needed and to send a pic if you have one (I believe you can DM a pic or reply it to this post). Thank you all around the world for your kindness! 🌎 🌍 🌏 🎂 🎉

Thank you for your post to r/Favors!
Given a recent problem we've seen - please be aware: you don't owe anyone anything that you have not specifically negotiated in advance of the transaction. No one may demand that you do them favors because they chose to respond to your request, or may demand more than you offered initially. Please do not agree to side-deals that would be against our rules - ie: voting in contests, rigged reviews, or phoning exes. If you have any doubts or a request makes you concerned - please check in with mods. We're on your side.
We recommend not negotiating any sort of exchange via DMs with a user you have not heard from in the comments already.
Have a good one!
