"I've lost my faith in
humanity," they say.
I h a v e n ' t.
I haven't because two fifth graders made it possible for an entire playground to be built and a clinic for the children of Liberia who lived through a 14-year, horrible, civil war. I haven't because our middle school raised enough money to pay for four surguries for babies who couldn't afford them. I haven't because more than 100 people in our school ran to save a baby's life. I haven't because there were people who ran to raise awareness for breast cancer. I haven't because students were willing to travel to remote areas to dig canals for safe drinking water. I haven't because one girl's parents randomly donated 2000 rmb (that's chinese dollars) for a surgury a baby needed to live.
I haven't, and you shouldn't either.
