always good to hear a story of honesty or kindness, instead of the usual muggings rapes shootings and the ever rising cost of living

I love reading or hearing stories like that.
Made me realize that being kind isn't just good for the recipient, it's also good for us.

An amazing and heartwarming story.

It's also such a great feeling to see that so many folks actually make a pledge for the fundraising.
Hope everyone keeps to their promise. Bet most will.

[imagine]

i would think most will keep to their pledge, even if some don't, the guy will still be better off than he was, and most likely in excess of the rings value
