Angelique Bedwell, a single mom, used to have an SUV that she used to transport her 13-year-old, Jason, who has cerebral palsy. Then it got stolen from their apartment complex in Grand Prairie, Texas. When police found it a day later, it had been stripped.
After a local TV station aired her story, strangers chipped in to buy a new van—within a day. The money she’d been spending to pay off the SUV now goes toward bills and food.
This is the kind of thing that reaffirms your faith in humanity.
