Today in “d’awwww:” a toddler whose tearful devastation was capture on video when she learned that she’ll never be able to meet George Washington gets an appropriately adorable response from George Washington University.

In the video, which was posted on Youtube nearly two weeks ago, four-year-old Ava is crushed to the point of tears when her mother tells her she’ll never be able to meet the first President of the United States of America, George Washington.

The video, which has garnered more than 350,000 views since, got the attention of the first President’s namesake college, GWU. NBC4 first reported the reply video GWU made for Ava, offering her the chance to meet “George Washington” (their mascot) and free tickets to a GW basketball game:

Update: George Washington has also invited Ava to Mount Vernon.
