I like the way that 11 year old Lily DuBose who with the help of her mother started a not for profit charity called "Lily's Toy Box" which they started three years ago in Houston Texas.
Lily donates toys that she receives from donors around the world to the children of first responders who appreciate having a toy in their possession while their relatives go to work saving the lives of patients who are battling illnesses related to the Coronavirus pandemic.
I am hoping that others follow the example of Lily to assist first responders and their relatives during this crisis.

When children act this way it is a good indication that we are going to have a good future generation.

That is true since I am wondering if our future leaders will be good or bad.

@Deepizzaguy with the future leaders, I think they will be the same. It is always .like that. When I was in high school we were expecting a change but we did not get it until now because all the leaders we voted into office are the same. It's like they came from the factory.

@Alexandoy That is true since the joke is "No matter who is elected to be a leader, nothing will change."

I agree with you since Lily got the idea after the Hurricane that struck Houston a few years ago.

I think so since I am sure Lily gets those kinds of toys from her donors.
