After seeing our post about the true Christmas spirit, a reader has sent us these examples of helping someone in need:-

The man who gave the shoes off his feet to this homeless girl.

This motorist stopped to help an old man pass safely.

This barber offers haircuts for the price of a single hug.

This police officer handcuffed himself to a woman to make sure she knew she’d have to take him with her.

A dog owner who mourned by giving.

This store employee gives extra service.

The crowd who decided a disabled fan should be able to watch the show, no matter what.

(Thanks, Bert)

We also noted last week in Australia, Dick Smith (of Dick Smith Electronics) donated $1 million to regional rural families in need because of drought.
