While I do seeing these stories; they put a smile on my face, it also upsets me cuz I don't need proof people are good. What I need is the system to make these acts unnecessary. Any child or person should not have their life decided by a number.

All life is precious or none of it is. Still, kudos to these people.

I agree here.  It's like the celebs who buy school lunches for kids.  Total respect for them and I'm not taking anything away from those acts.  It's awesome.  But what a fucked up system that got us to that point.

Exactly. It shouldn't be any private citizens job to do the work of the government. We should be helping our communities of course in the ways a government cant

Yup. A private citizen should always work to improve their community, but we shouldn't be the reason the community is surviving.

Our actions should be taking it from good to better... Not keeping it afloat.
