The Oprah site has some wonderful stories of heroes in hard times. Among the stories:
Ashlee Smith (10 years old) lost everything four years ago to a housefire. She decided to collect toys to help other kids who had lost their toys due to fire or other natural disasters. In just two years she has managed to collect over 50,000 toys for other children.
Hannah Turner (8 years old) decided to give a homeless man her pink socks and then next day she and her mom decided to purchase 100 pairs of socks to hand out to the homeless. Since then, they have collected over 100,000 pairs of socks!!
