Chadwick Boseman was working to surprise a child who was sick by sending him lots of toys so he can feel happy and special.
Black Panther producer Nate Moore shared emotional final message he received from the late actor Chadwick Boseman. In a recent interview with a publication, Moore said his final interaction with Boseman was via text message amid the pandemic and the two texted back and forth regarding their work for the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
“We worked together to get a young boy a voice note from T’Challa, as well as a package of toys – no easy feat when we weren’t allowed to leave our homes or go to the office,” Moore says, “But Chad figured out how to make it work because he cared so intently, and in hindsight, so personally.”
The text from Boseman read: “It broke me, man. But we need to do that for them. People deserve abundant life, special moments. They’ve been through hell battling disease. If we were able to ease their suffering and bring joy for a moment, and hopefully moments as he goes through the bags, then we made a difference in his life.”

“Again, hindsight will tell us that Chad felt that way because he too was battling a disease,” Moore told People Magazine. “But I don’t think that’s true. I think that’s just who he was as a man. A leader and a caregiver first, who accomplished both of those things as a performer and as a regular person.”
Outside of starring in game-changing blockbuster films and taking on important, career-changing roles, Boseman spent much of his time bringing happiness and joy to sick and terminally ill children. In 2018, for example, Boseman visited St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Tennessee, bringing patients toys and joy, courage and inspiration.
Chad Boseman was battling colon cancer for more than four years and the actor breathed his last on August 28, 2020. He was only 43. The Avanger star was found dead in his Los Angeles home and his demise shocked and saddened the world. Fans and celebrities alike, expressed their grief through Twitter and paid their condolences on social media.
