It’s ironic on terrible situation can often bring the humanity out in us. How times of great trouble for some, can lead others to do unbelievable acts of kindness.
Hurricane Dorian has devastated many and forced many into being uncomfortable or worse but it has also brought out heroes that we may had never met.
Here’s a great story of one such hero; (via Fox8)
“A South Carolina 6-year-old decided some things are more important than a trip to Disney World.
This Sunday, Jermaine Bell will turn 7, and after saving money for a birthday trip to Disney World, he decided his birthday cash was better spent helping those evacuated from the South Carolina coast ahead of Hurricane Dorian, WJBF reports.
“The people that are traveling to go to places, I wanted them to have some food to eat, so they can enjoy the ride to the place that they’re going to stay at,” Bell said.
The child used the money to buy hot dogs and chips and water, and he gave it all up for nothing in return.
“I wanted to be generous and live to give,” Bell said.
The 6-year-old, with the help of his grandmother, put together signs and stood on the side of Highway 125 in Allendale. He was able to help out close to 100 evacuees, according to WJBF.
Bell’s hopes for a big Disney trip however are far from gone, and he’s holding out hope that he can still make that dream come true.”
