  1. I am speechless. That was such an amazing video. I literally can't even describe what I feel. Those simple acts of kindness can again change peoples lives. I am so amazed that people would take time out of their schedules to help.

  3. Amazing video. The video was seen through the people of one community. I found it really cool that one person can change the mind of someone else. Like peer pressure except the good kind, where some one will influence you in a community or a community and then you. “Few will have the greatness to bend history itself, but each of us can work to change a small portion of events. It is from numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is shaped. Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance.”
    ― Robert F. Kennedy
