Dave Sylvester is on a mission. Heâs traveling across the country to spread positivity through everyday actions. He carries a sign that reads, âHi my name is Big Daveâ and visits coffee shops, beaches and anywhere a crowd will be to find a hug, a high five, or small talk.
âBig Daveâ started his mission of spreading love after his friend died in the World Trade Center on 9/11. Heâs biked across three continents and volunteered along the way. He started his U.S. trip in Delaware and headed south, stopping in North Carolina, Georgia, and now heâs heading through Texas.
"I'm just here to make people smile," Sylvester says. "I think if we can at least have a base of communication via a smile and a hug and high five then we can communicate on other issues, and maybe make a difference in the world."
