    So how do we vote for Mr. Brown to be teacher of the year? You are an amazing educator, not just teaching the kids some facts from the books, but also educating them on how to be better people! We need more of this in the world!

    Well done, young givers. Well done, Mr. Brown. A great teacher can make all the difference in a child’s outlook on life. And well done, Steve Hartman. You are truly a national treasure and have outdone your usual high standards with this story about spreading light and love to a world sorely in need of a smile.

    That is what it is all about! Thank you Mr. Brown for teaching these kids about giving hearts.
    Those mega church preachers who buy expensive homes,
    cars etc. at the expense of their congregation need to take lessons from these precious ones just what it is all about.
    Not taking from those in need, BUT, HELPING THOSE IN NEED!
    God Bless these angels for being God's hands and feet.

    This could very well be the answer to alleviating bullying. If you can get kids off of themselves and on to others, maybe they will see how selfish and self centered they’ve been. What an idea.

    Even though the story is about Mr. Browning and how he's using on the road to help his students learn about kindness, generosity, giving and selflessness. This all wouldn't be possible if it wasn't for Steve Hartman doing these heartwarming videos for so many years. Steve Hartman the reason all of this in this video is possible

    Good stuff! This world is not as bad as most like to portray it; we just tend to focus on the evils of the world with social media fanning the flames of hatred. But if we were to pause and reflect on reality, we would clearly see that the good in this world clearly outweighs the evil.

    This is a beautiful story . Is it permitted for me to use it during zoom worship with my church as a lead in to offering time? We the recipients of the gifts just randomly chosen or did the have people in mind with they started the distributions? This story has been an important contribution to my holiday season

    God led these precious children to be His voice, hands and feet.
    Again, God led these precious children to GIFT (by raising money) those who were going through tough times and as they shared their story we saw God's hand in going up to the right person who was in need.
    Each child felt the true meaning of giving!
    Warmed my ❤️!
    God Bless you SWEET SWEET ONES!

Especially w/all the illegals we have here now because we kept the borders open and those who refuse to take citizenship who just want to leave their own country and take advantage of us
